Linenthal and Johnson, San Francisco's Potrero Hill, 40, 44-5. Four public housing developments were also constructed during and after World War II on the southern side of the hill. Like many other public housing projects, their layouts inhibited integration with the surrounding neighborhood and they have become a source of consistent tension. Potrero Annex and Terrace still remain, though both are slated for demolition and will be replaced with mixed-income housing under the current 'Rebuild Potrero' plan.
