Work seems to be picking up at 8th and B. I noticed some new progress on my walk yesterday:

Nice. Hope they get moving soon. I'd love a redesign that makes the tower less bland, but anything that can go up should.
Anyone been to Radd lately? I heard some of the walkways are opening up but I haven't seen much online about it. |

We should know more once the sales office opens up- which is on the broadway corner of Diega next door. |

This made me go do some research. I’m just now realizing how retail-oriented the RaDD development is. They’re some new renders in their retail leasing brochure. If this gets some cool tenants (It definitely will), it will be a much bigger boost to downtown than I was expecting. http://https://images1.loopnet.com/d...chureFlyer.pdf |
Thanks all for the update on RaDD. I like that there's a lot of retail there. Should be a popular addition to the area with all the tourists/locals who naturally gather in that area. It's a good neighbor for Seaport Village.

Incredibly disappointing if this is what the Ritz Carlton replacement is going to look like. We went from a height-limit-hugging tower to a generic building that's barely a midrise. Zero presence on the skyline. Completely hidden from Petco Park views. 400 units is great of course, but it could have been so much more impactful with at least a tower. Vantage Point is also a full block and fits nearly 700 units. Park12 fits over 700. I know financing is an issue and building a tower is more complicated than this, but still.
I love this city but stuff like this makes it hard sometimes: https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/d...ering-3-ne.jpg I don't have a subscription to the U-T, but here's the link where I found this plus a short description: https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com...ical-milestone Quote:

7th and market
It is awful. An insult to the neighborhood. I live in one of the buildings nearby and I reached out to our HOA and they are looking the other way. I guess that is how you pull this off...without view obstruction...

ACE Parking Signage going up at Manchester Fairmount
Ok all these projects falling through because money actually has a cost now and the fantasy land of super low rates following the 2008 crash have finally come to an end because inflation took forever to show up. Rates are still at below historical average and ahhh we can't build anything now. Such a joke. Oh and we will just wait for rates to come down, uh the only reason they will is when there is a massive crash or financial system has seized up and that won't be good either.
Reality is back and all of these developers will simply have to adjust to that or nothing will get built again. Like one person said a few posts ago they have made a killing these last 13 years. Question about when developers actually "get their financing" projects like Manchester Fairmount and the Mission Valley River Walk have been planned for so many years now wouldn't they have had their financing back in 2022 before rates spiked? When does a developer actually get their rate? Those who didn't see higher rates coming after Trillions were flooded in to the system post Covid were very myopic who would think that all those printed up currency units wouldn't cause inflation hence higher rates :shrug: |
I'm glad the Manchester Fairmont project is stalled. Maybe it will die and something less insulting will get proposed there instead.

New Luxury Apartments replacing JCPenney at Fashion Valley
So you’ve probably heard Fashion Valley is getting 850 apartments plus 100k square feet of retail and restaurants which will replace JCPenney. That’s great, but the timeline is perplexing. According to most news outlets, the store will close in late 2025 and the apartments will be completed late 2026. 850 units in a single year? What am I missing?

Great photos!! That park/courtyard looks beautiful. Hopefully more signs of life begin to see the space and start leasing.. maybe that could attract biotech
