Isn’t this initiative the last and best chance for development at Alameda Point?

It is not credible to argue that only one developer in the entire country can revitalize Alameda Point in a good business partnership with the City of Alameda. Alameda Point has valuable land and will be put to productive use that is not a drain on the city.

Moreover, allowing multi-family housing was not previously an option factored into the business plans of potential developers.
