Many other parts of the city have a very nice variety that comes from the buildings being built across a wide range of times. You can go just a couple blocks north into the rest of SoMa to see how much nicer it is aesthetically. Still, I honestly don't mind living here.

I think the bigger difference is parcel size. 25 foot wide lots are great for walkability, superblocks not so much.
