Are there any rumors on who's occupying the office space? Their site says "Retail and office space are available Q1 2021." however I'm curious if that date will stick. |

It looks like another attempt to develop Fifth Avenue Landing is rejected. Some port commissioners believe the project is too large for the site, among other objections. One quote from the article jumps out at me.

More info on the Seaport San Diego redo:
What’s happening with Seaport San Diego, the $2.5B redo of downtown’s Central Embarcadero? https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/d...-201810-14.png https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/d...-201810-13.png I gotta say, of all the projects I expected might be delayed/canceled by COVID, this was the one I thought most likely. Good to see there's still some motion behind it. |

Glad to see that Little Italy project moving forward. I also saw earth moving equipment at the last lot of La Jolla Commons just west of the 805. It was 2 things not massive tractors so we shall see if something is brewing there.

Also noticed a decent amount of the parking lot at UTC probably 2 to acres right next to the new tower in SW Corner of property is fenced off with heavy equipment parked on it... Hmm any word of another tower going in there? Why not with malls and retail looking rough in the coming years keep adding housing!! :cheers: |

The height limit thing is, again, removing the 500' above sea level limit. Not the 500' above ground level. So if your site is on a 30' hill, you can build a 500' tower instead of a 470' one. Regarding "rules for housing under flight paths", state law says every airport needs an Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP) that lays out land usage restrictions for noise, safety, etc. The regional airport authority, which runs SDIA, makes one for each airport in the county based on state and FAA guidance. One of those guidelines says you're not supposed to allow any housing within 6000' feet of a runway end... a rule that just about every airport in California breaks because they didn't start making these ALUCPs until the early 2000s. So instead, they all just froze housing density at whatever it was when they adopted the ALUCP. A local jurisdiction, like the City of San Diego, can override the ALUCP if it wants to. But then it also assumes all legal liability if, say, an airliner runs into the housing block they just approved. Because of the potential liability issues most cities approve these exemptions on a case by case basis. But then most cities aren't San Diego, where practically half the city is within a mile of one runway or another, and there's constant requests for exemptions. So the city got together and laid out a map of potential exemptions they'd allow, and basically tells the authority "we're preapproved everything on here". Saves everyone time really. Man I wish journalists would spend a little more time trying to understand what they're writing about instead of being vague and confusing. |
Thanks, Will!

https://i.imgur.com/euYKSvz.jpg The Part 77 surfaces in this chart are recommended height limits, which are just 166.8 feet over most of downtown. Cities can elect to override them, but the State of CA restricts anything that exceeds the recommendations to no more than 500 feet above ground. From the outermost circle, the 500 foot limit extends almost to the Coronado bridge. I would note that this image only includes San Diego International, North Island and Montgomery Field have their own airspace limitations. As you can see the Part 77 surfaces do get lower closer to the airport, but determining the actual height limit before you start impacting flight operations is a more complex topic. |

Note: supporting populations larger than ~100k would require significant improvements in infrastructure, especially public transit. Downtown is currently scoped for 90k residents, about 3x its current population. |
