John King has read between the lines of last week's Transit Center plan, and sees Mission Street as the new Market. Surprise! But if anybody's been paying attention, the 50-year "move south has already occurred," with the Yerba Buena museum district stomping out residential hotels and with Mission Bay replacing dead rail yards. Yes, says King, the development environment nowadays is harsh, making a slew of new towers sound like pure fantasy, but in the long view of things, 2009's but a brief, development-killing blip.
