I've talked about this for hours with people around here and out there. It's a cautionary tale for NYC because there already wasn't enough affordable housing here /before/ our tech sector started taking off again, and I believe NYC is now the third biggest on the way to becoming the second, right after San Francisco.
My recollection is Bloomberg rezoned 40% of the city during his time as mayor, and that means New York is in better shape to expand than San Francisco, but gaze upon the problems out west and know that those troubles are ours as well.
