Looks like the ant farm I had when I was a kid.
The new name for the facility may be the SalesFarce or SalesFart non-transit facility. /sarc
Should be the PooPoo Transit Center.
Uh, sounds like some of that stuff on SF streets came from designer’s brains. (Not to say anything about “leadership” of that sh*thole.)
Another brainstorm engineering feat from a state prone to earthquakes that thinks it’s a good idea to build their bridges over and under.......never understood the logic in That.
Atlas Shrugged.
Were any federal tax dollars used for this charlie foxtrot?
If so, when the heck do the Congressional hearings start?!
Put Liberals in charge of something and take a wild guess as to the outcome.
Another glaring example of how government can waste taxpayer money on a grand scale.
This isn’t the Grand Central Of The West.
It’s The BIG DIG of the West.
Remember the Boston “BIG DIG”?
Original cost estimate $6 Billion
Final cost $24.3 billion
Construction start 1991
Original completion date - 1998
Actual completion date - Dec 31, 2007
Plagued by cost overruns, delays, leaks, design flaws, shoddy wormanship, collapse of tunnel roofing, charges of poor execution and use of substandard materials, and criminal arrests.
Chinese steel?
You have to wonder how much this construction effected the foundations of the Millenium Tower. But this project had greased skids. It was impossible to oppose, or even slow down.
High Speed Rail is going to kill California.
“Sitting near the heart of downtown, the three-block structure was expected to accommodate 100,000 passengers each weekday, and up to 45 million people a year.”
Which would mean about 200,000 passengers each non-work day, which would be a first for a transit terminal (having more people show up on non-work days than work days) - OR -—
...OR, they can’t even do that level of math, which may account for their minority/woman/native engineering firm screwing up the beam sizing calculations too.

Union work.
We really need to know if the engineers were Male or female because we all know male engineers don’t make mistakes.
Was Richard Blum involved in the development in any way, shape, or form?
If so, that’s Feinstein’s wife.
