For a fascinating, typewritten history of San Francisco Tomorrow, as written by Jack Morrison, newspaper writer, civic activist, founder of SFT and San Francisco Supervisor, click on this link:
The House that Jack Built
Thanks to Jane Morrison for making this story available. In it, Jack Morrison recounts the fight over the plans to run a freeway through Golden Gate Park, the history of the City’s 40 foot height limit, the struggle to prevent the Transamerica Bulding from being built and the names of the great civic leaders of the 1970’s who fought power and money in an effort to keep San Francisco the place you would want to live in tomorrow. The question they posed in the face of rampant development in the ’70s is one that is still valid today: “WILL YOU WANT TO LIVE IN SAN FRANCISCO TOMORROW?”
