		DerekL on July 7, 2014 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Living in a Fool’s Paradise The article does mention policies of other cities in the Bay Area. For instance: "Although cities in the Valley, such as Google’s home of Mountain View, have been eager to approve the construction of new office space, they’ve refused to allow new housing construction to provide places for employees to live near their offices."

Sadly the author seems intent on mischaracterizing Mountain View here.

The rejected project was 1,000 units in an area that is otherwise all office buildings.

6 times that number of units were approved by the city and are being built, yet the author makes no mention of that at all.
