Today from Mission Local

Good morning!

Housing policy is always political, and always good for a fight: Should SF address the housing crisis by making it “easier to build all kinds of housing,” or defend a historic neighborhood against “25+ story ultra-luxury towers along the waterfront?” We ask candidates for D3 supervisor what they think of the housing bill that Supervisor Aaron Peskin and Mayor London Breed are battling over.

A Cultural Mission visits with Alonzo King, the San Francisco choreographer returning to the Yerba Buena Center next week with a new piece, “Spring,” set to African-American spirituals. And hey, speaking of spring: Maestro Curtis and the Curtis Family C-notes will be at the Community Music Center tomorrow night for an exuberant free concert. Come check it out!

More soon,

Sara
