@signaltap Both took decades of planning and ballot-approved tax measures to get built, I immediately see as the reasons "why."
Almost every major project in California that needs special tax funding to get built, needs to go on ballots for the general population to vote on in election cycles.
In the early 1990s when I moved to SF, the T line was just being started. 3rd st was a corridor of abandoned shipyards. No UCSF. It took until the 2010s, to complete. Same, w/ the Airport extension.
