This will be pretty sweet. Right on the water in the heart of San Francisco.

That looks pretty sweet. If Seattle gets a team, their arena is supposed to be on the waterfront too. And we are stuck with Radium Stadium for the next 40 years.
About time their arena is pretty sketchy place to go to a night game at.
They are downgrading capacity?
Is it just me, or does the seem like a terrible idea when you consistently sell out games>? They should be upgrading capacity.
The whole window thing is awesome though.

I live in SF. I'm surprised they're building right on a pier like that. It could literally fall below sea level. It looks like they're going to develop the whole Embarcadero area below Market St.
Anyone know what the massive tower is going to be?
You do realize that Utah could make a case for having the actual smallest market-size in all of pro sports and the bay area is 6th largest (at least), right? So yeah, they get more goodies than us.
There's a large, relatively affluent population in the Bay Area that goes nuts over the Warriors. San Francisco + Oakland + San Jose is over 3 million people easily. Going to Warriors and Giants games is becoming a hip thing for Silicon Valley techies to do, and a lot of Asians really dig basketball for some reason.
As for earthquake safety, maybe the arena is just supposed to float off into the bay.

Considering I'm never going to pay for all of the fancy upgrades, the ESA is fine with me for the next 40 years. It's a fun environment and has a great location.

I was in SF last week. What an amazing city. The arena will probably add to the nightlife around that pier.
Thanks for the link. +rep

Dude you live in San Fransico and you think the BaY area only has 3 million people....

Really? I guess that would include the entire east bay and peninsula + Marin and north a bit.

Well yeah if you originally included Oakland and San Jose then you would defenitly include the entire east bay and the northern cities!!
okay, just ...er ...catching up
Stifle Tower
Punch Bowl Re-Filler
I hope just as the arena is finished, the pier collapses and it sinks into the ocean (with no one hurt, of course). The Tankers deserve nothing but bad luck.
