SF supervisors approve plan for 3,500 homes atop parking lots at Stonestown Galleria mall

The San Francisco Board of Supervisors has given final approval for a new project that will convert swaths of surface parking at the Stonestown Galleria mall into approximately 3,500 new homes, acres of open space and other community services.

The project could add up to five towers standing between three and 18 floors to the Stonestown Galleria area, which sits just north of San Francisco State University and amid lower-density and single-family housing units. In addition to housing, the project includes a new 6-acre open space, retail space, a retail main street at 20^th Avenue and senior and child care facilities.
