DESCRIPTION:SF's shelves are its vacant and semi-vacant lots. With a 30% vacancy rate 
 in the commercial downtown, and with heaps of residential parcels 
 impervious to the market demand for their employment, there's a crying need 
 to restock SF's shelves with non-tech businesses and workaday renters. How 
 to do it?\n\nCome along on this walking tour positing that the footprint of 
 the USA is "the frontier." If only the conquistadors and George Washingtons 
 weren't permitted to call it their own without first and annually paying 
 the rest of us to stay off what rightfully is ours too--the footprint of 
 the USA--we'd find out mighty soon just how under-used are the pueblo lands 
 of our city. Pelosi and Lurie and their bankrolling governing board of land 
 owners would start recruiting every renter they could if the land value of 
 the land no longer functioned as private income or leverage equity, but 
 instead filled the community chest.\n\nLoads of stories tracing San 
 Francisco's frontier 19th century sand lots to bank vaults history . . . 
 with relevance to today!\n
