Oh yes...

It would have to work up to clusterfuck...

From the link in the OP:

Shortly after breaking ground, the agency responsible for the center — the Transbay Joint Powers Authority — hired a consulting firm to see how their construction might affect the nearby Millennium Tower.


Very typical of the "ready, fire, aim" approach of The City That Used To Know How...

The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge? $6.4 Billion... cheap at twice the price. An absolute money maker that's raking in almost $626,000 daily.

That explains the first part of that serving of alphabet soup that you list as your location ....
