The road that runs along the ocean - unless it's covered in sand again, as is common.

Residents will have a great view of the fog rolling, and the cool ocean breezes will mean they won't need air-conditioning - although they may need heat in summer. Driving to downtown SF - where most of the business and good restaurants are - will be a bit time consuming, but the L Taraval streetcar runs past there. But they'll be close to the zoo and the sewage treatment plant (and how soon before the residents complain about the animals)

Aside from sticking out like a sore appendage, the area is literally built on sand dunes, and the San Andreas fault runs just offshore. Are these architects familiar with the area (I'm not removing my ad blocker for the chronicle)?
