Even though I no longer live in San Diego, the Chargers need to stay there. If they ever had an opportunity to move to Portland though I'd support that. :rolleyes: :jester: |
Agree about the twins concept, lets mix it up an bit. This project is a bit uninspiring and I would like to see the towers a bit thinner and taller. What is the height on those as they stand now?
About the Vikings moving to LA. Chargers wouldn't be totally out of the woods because there is a lot of talk about having one NFC and one AFC team in LA. So if the Vikings moved first, the Chargers could simply move in and be a "tenant" in the new stadium without selling a piece of the team. |
Two teams in the same city is stupid. Shoot neither the Giants or the Jets play in New York. They should at least give Jersey some recognition. The New Jersey Jets has a nice ring to it. :P

The California Coastal Commission voted unanimously Wednesday against the Navy’s redevelopment plans for its 16-acre waterfront property, concluding that it is no longer consistent with state coastal requirements.
The vote, taken at the commission's meeting in Oceanside, will further delay a project that has been in the works for two decades. The Navy had earlier informed state coastal officials that it does not agree with that agency's findings. Commission staff said it expects the next step will be to either enter into mediation or file a new lawsuit against the Navy. http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2...development-p/ |

The proposal by Manchester isn't worthy of that location. That bayfront 16 acre parcel is arguably one of the most desired spaces for urban development in the entire country and that's the best they can do? A bunch of bland rectangles and squares.
If there was a place to put something iconic for San Diego then this is no doubt the best place for that. Aside from the potential jobs being delayed, maybe it's a good thing it was rejected. It needs to get done right! This proposal just screams "We are San Diego! We are mediocre!" http://media.signonsandiego.com/img/...053cbc530c46a8 http://www.signonsandiego.com/ Manchester is the absolute worst bunch to put in charge of this project. They gave us the uninspiring Hilton and French Chateau Tower (Hyatt). Just put me at the helm of this project and I can draw something up more creative and fitting for that location in a couple hours.:yes: |

They're bouncing off the walls, in Austin, over the convention hotel Manchester has planned for there.

So here we are with Lane Field still with no start date and NBC delayed indefinitely I think we run the risk of having parking lots sitting at the waterfront for decades to come if we don't get going soon. The economy isn't going to get any better so we might as well put some shovels in the dirt now. |

Re: Lane Field, first time I visited San Diego was in 1990. And at that time the redevelopment of Lane Field was in the 'advanced planning stage.' |
