So the Phoenix Coyotes had a vote for a new stadium fail and looks like they will move...
...and San Diego is building a new 16,500 arena... Is it possible? |
Would love that if the coyotes had to move.
|
The Coyotes need an arena solution for next season and the owner has ties to Houston, they will probably move there. An arena here won't be ready until God knows when:shrug:
Regarding Biotech in UTC: What is going on with the project across the street from mall? Frankly having that old commercial center fenced off is an embarrassing eye sore, does anyone know why that development is lagging so hard... |

Here's an interesting proposal. Just south of Father joes is this proposal for a 3 tower affordable housing complex. Tallest one is 38 floors. https://www.mirkainvest.com/new-day-...or-mirka-1000/ |
Drove down 6th avenue yesterday and it appears that 6th Ave Promenade site is not only entirely fenced off but demo of the old buildings has already begun.
Check out the developer's website for more images and a video explaining their BIG plans for Hillcrest. https://greenwaldcompany.com/6th-promenade/ https://i.imgur.com/x0LA9De.png |
The Website Shows 2 towers for this long block
Are they actually approved or is this still simply a proposal? You would think that we would have been hearing about a two tower project with this height in Hillcrest being opposed by some groups. The video on their site shows an old proposal for the Pernicanos site that is much taller than the 8 floor project that is nearly topped out now.
Holland Tower Front and A: This tower is UC with a big hole right now, I'm surprised no renderings have been posted on this thread. The downtown development map says 34 floors 445 feet tall. Construction at the Little Italy Parking Garage: Across the street from Ariel Suites. This is another tower coming to LI, has anyone seen renderings or any info on this. We need to update this thread thanks guys :cheers: |

Looks like a lowrise for senior living and a 29 floor development by Holland. |
Not as exciting as a new high rise, but this thread has been slow lately:

Columbia District Updates
Holland Front & A
That was fast, looks like a tower crane will be erected soon. https://i.imgur.com/WlgLhjj.jpg Pinnacle Columbia & A Excavation still in progress. https://i.imgur.com/S61kzsI.jpg The Lindley Parking podium is complete, looks like the tower portion is rising now. https://i.imgur.com/8fm45xe.jpg |
Wow! Thanks for those photos, very nice vantage point.
For Front and A (the 34-floor/445-foot tower), here's a rendering from the City's website: https://webmaps.sandiego.gov/portal/...698.png?w=2000 https://webmaps.sandiego.gov/portal/...34d7559e5a4d98 |

As mentioned before, Downtown SD is experiencing construction boom. It'll boom even more thanks to popularity of Little Italy. Areas there and adjacent will see the most high rise residential development for the next few years. Little Italy is the place to be in all of SD County.

This Realtor on YouTube does videos about downtown. He says THe Grocery Outlet on Market st. didn't renew its lease. Making way for a Bosa Highrise.

The Lindley and Columbia and A are really going to make that part of downtown feel dense. Love it. Not to mention the 4 other high rises all going up only a few blocks away.

All of these projects really do look indistinguishable from one another. San Diego is gonna start looking like downtown Vancouver with all these semi-identical glass towers.
There are worse fates than that, I suppose. |
Quote:
The bad part of looking like Vancouver: unwavering glass box architecture with little variance in height. We will actually look a lot worse than VAN from a skyline point of view because our height limits are much lower and won't even have the few notable towers poking through. But from a realistic pedestrian and resident point of view, the way the skyline looks and photographs is pretty low in the ranks of things that affect our lives the most. Give me more 500ft boxes if it means a more vibrant downtown with more foot traffic and commerce, living options and rental inventory to take the stress off supply now that SD is ranked more expensive than SF and just under NYC. |

Looks like if you go on that downtown development activity map site it says that the 8th and B development will be 503 feet tall, which would officially make for the tallest building in San Diego. Nothing crazy, but also cool. I didn't think the city was able to go above 500'.

How many will see light of day? 1460 India has been cleared the lot years ago and now it's still a parking lot.
Here's an update on 8th and B https://youtu.be/VYnjdNtTEvQ |
Heard through the grapevine (some Greystar employees at a Bosa building) that the 8th and B project might be getting a bit of a rework design wise alongside it's conversion from apartments to condos in order to make use of the new lowered parking requirements.
Might see more units in the finished project |
SB 10 shot down.
Ugh. |

Wow, Tijuana is looking good. Hopefully they keep the momentum going. If they sort out their mass tranist/BRT issues the building boom could get even bigger.

Looks like 7th and Market is going to be an...8 story building.

How would a project like this on that prime site even be profitable?? |

Does anyone know what's happening on 5th in the Gaslamp, between E & F?
Every storefront is shuttered on both sides of the street. Seems like the apartments above are empty as well. Seems strange this block would be so completely dead when the next block (both north and south) are usually packed. Is there some major renovation planned? |

Oh, now that's some prime as hell property to redevelop.

What is the maximum height allowed there? I know the hotel being built on the other side of broadway is ~ 400ft. But I recall a limit on the north side approaching little italy on the west side of PCH

The Union Tribune keeps having these articles with headline: Should UCSD build a 5 to 6k bed "Student Village"? I don't pay so I can't read the article but aren't they already have one approved to start soon at that "Pepper Canyon" site that was discussed here on the forum a couple of months ago with renderings for a new Student Union or some amenities besides just the dorms?
Is there another giant student housing project that is being thrown around besides that one? Thanks. |
Quote:
The new village would be east of the Pepper Canyon project on the other side of the Blue line trolley tracks right on I-5. They're saying it would be a multi-high-rise project, though exact heights have not been shared. |
A crane up at 3rd and Nutmeg St. in Bankers Hill
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...8e5f81ec_h.jpg |
Here is a video of the current work from the developer: https://www.cast-dev.com/kaya-virtual-tour
|
There are three major student housing projects currently u/c at UC San Diego. The Pepper Canyon West one which you can see by the Trolley is 1,400 beds or so. There's a larger one (Ridge Walk north) just west of Geisel Library that's 2,400 beds.
The Theater District project is about to be complete. It's also quite large. I think SDFan is right that Pepper Canyon East is the one that's being hinted at by the U-T. It will be larger than these three I believe. |

Looks like Target is pulling out of its planned EV location, citing crime & rising homelessness in the area. Such a shame that downtown just can't have nice things...
|
I haven't heard about downtown having rampant shoplifting issues. I know Bay Area and LA for sure have them in their urban areas maybe Target thinks SD will go that way in downtown especially with a massive recession looming...
I know Target has been closing stores in urban areas in Chicago, Philly, Bay, and possibly other places. Anyone have any Intel about this issue and Target being worried? |

Source: reddit I saw this pic on reddit. It's a nice view, but it made me realize how little impact the Pacific Gateway/RaDD has on the skyline itself. I had to zoom in to check if it was a recent pic or not. Don't get me wrong I'm glad something's there instead of that parking lot, and I hope it adds some much needed street activity, but I'm a little disappointed how bland it looks. |
