JCC of S.F. gets a new ally in building quest: the mayor

by Mayor Willie Brown said he would definitely oppose designating the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco a landmark., The San Francisco mayor first made his remarks on Ronn Owens' radio talk show on KGO-AM last week.

But the JCC board and staff are hoping the Planning Commission will reject that decision, so they can tear down the 68-year-old building and construct a new state-of-the-art facility.

"The mayor believes that not all old buildings need landmark status," said Ron Vinson, deputy press secretary for the mayor.

"In this particular case, the JCC would be better served and the people who use it would be better served with a new state-of-the-art, enlarged facility that can accommodate more people and more services."
