MARCH 4th ON MAXIMUS
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 4
MEET at 5:45 PM
LABORERS LOCAL 261 UNION HALL
3721 18TH STREET at SHOTWELL


RSVP ON FACEBOOK AND INVITE YOUR FRIENDS

On March 4th we will march into Maximus's public meeting. We will demand truly affordable housing for our community, instead of monster luxury towers and meager "community benefits."

MAXIMUS Real Estate Partners--the developers who have proposed the twin ten-story towers at 16th and Mission Street, better known as the MONSTER IN THE MISSION--have announced a public meeting on March 4th.

At this meeting Maximus will present a package of "community benefits" intended to mitigate the tremendous detrimental impact their development would have upon the Mission District. But, of course, no meager community benefits package will make up for the drastically increased residential and commercial rents, and the widespread displacement this project will cause in our community. 

On March 4th, we will have an opportunity to face representatives of Maximus directly and tell them that the only community benefit we need is affordable housing, and that we refuse to let them build their luxury towers in our community.

::: REPORT BACK FROM 2/19 PLAZA 16 COMMUNITY MEETING :::

On Thursday, February 19, the Plaza 16 Coalition held its first community meeting for 2015 and it was a rousing success. Community folks once again packed St. John’s Church at 15th and Julian Street to get the latest updates on Maximus Real Estate Partners' proposed development for 1979 Mission St. (at 16th), learn about the City’s approval process for such developments, and to initiate a community-led process for developing a community-serving vision for development for Plaza 16.  Read the full report on our website.
