The Board of Supervisor’s web site is a little funky, but it looks like the prior meeting was maybe cancelled, and the new vote to approve Orton rehabilitating most of Pier 70 should happen on Tuesday.
Going from the BOS 2012 Public Notices into the Tuesday, December 04, 2012 2:00 PM Board of Supervisors Agenda — inside that document is a link to a pdf packet about the whole Pier 70 deal, which, for a document about the waterfront, is pretty dry. Bring a canteen for your desert journey:

SLIDESHOW: Waterfront rehab planned for Pier 70 in Dogpatch neighborhood
The Examiner says:
The future of San Francisco’s dilapidated Pier 70 is coming into focus in advance of today’s Board of Supervisors committee vote on the financial terms of a planned $58.5 million rehab of historic buildings along the central, southern waterfront.
Under the deal, the Port of San Francisco would enter a 66-year lease with Orton Development to complete a $58.5 million rehabilitation of six office and industrial buildings on a 69-acre site in the Dogpatch neighborhood under what is known as the 20th Street Historic Building rehabilitation project.
SF Gate has an article too!
Plan to Bring Pier 70 Back to Life
Rumor has it that a VERY high end restaurant is slated to go into Building #102.

102 is an amazing building. Houses the gear works for the cranes. I hope they leave a lot of the huge gears intact.
During Orton’s presentation to the DNA, they said that they’d like to keep two of the four, and that the other two would be maintained somewhere in the area.
