BT, not that I'm a big defender of Pfau partners et al, but the Lesbian Gay Bi, Transgender, Identity politics community center did come with it set of fairly absurd change orders due to the edwardian manse on the corner and it connection to the rancheria history of General Castro (in the south bay, east bay). Pfau was also blindsided by a crappy engineering report that failed to accurately identify the sand/loam issues of the soil. The final design does have a faint, 60s mod berlin feel, and it has to integrate structurally with the old building. It's sort of the design result when applying the old if you have lemons make lemonade slogan.
