Kettner & Ash

I just don't know about this one...it's so typical Bosa, it just makes me kind of sick. The design review panel called this crap unique..."UNIQUE"???? Are they crazy?! Are they not seeing the same typical Bosa tower that looks nearly identical to Bayside, and Electra, not to mention the STRONG resemblance to the newly planned ones, like the one where the KUSI Mixed-use was suppose to be, or at Highway & E???

There's no question that Kettner & Ash is another Bosa project. It looks nice enough, but I sure hope it doesn't look too much like their Bayside tower across the street.

Couldnt agree with you more, sd_urban.

Also, how realistic is the amount of greenery on rooftop levels? And all those trees seems optomistic.

Yea, i highly doubt all that greenery will happen. The renderings showed that the Legend was suppose to have a lot more greenery, and the rooftop terrace was suppose to have these nice, full trees, but they were replaced by these thin, measley lookin Palms.

Btw, I wish there was a plan to replace the Holiday Inn hotel towers along the embarcadero... between Harbor and Pacific Highway... north of Broadway and south of Ash. They have a semi decent blueish paint job that kinda masks their ugliness and out-of-dateness..., but I see right through it an cringe. They are an embarrassment to the downtown San Diego waterfront; our front porch.

Yes, these towers definitely need to be imploded. Something REAL nice can definitely go there in the near future.
