^I walk by that all the time and although there's a rendering it just says it's retail space without naming the retailer(s)

Is the plan you're taking about the one where they'll tear down the old state courthouse (on Broadway?) and build the new one on the same location? |

Maybe this is common knowledge and I've just missed all the discussion, but this struck me as funny. Manchester can't get anything done out here in California (like so many others) so he decides to pick up his toys and head to Texas (like so many others).

They are building two retail spaces next to Urban Outfitters. One is leased by Snooze A.M. Eatery.

Manchester is a developer. Developers develop anywhere they want. Just like Canadian BOSA building a dozen condos in SD. Nothing special there.:shrug: |

Texas created 37% of the total jobs in the whole country last year. The businesses move where the regulation is lower and the private economy is encouraged not punished with high taxes and government largess. California has the climate but that doesnt sustain a vibrant economy.

They will demo the old ugly county courthouse on Front and Broadway which will open new development opportunities. After the jail is demo'ed a new park - Civic Square Park - will be built on C and Front. |
Impressive indeed. SOM always puts out some good eye catchers. Too bad it'll be hard to see it from a distance given its location in a dense spot.
Thanks kpexpress for posting the pics. All this irrelevant "Texas is a cheap place!" talk was beginning to get out of hand. |
I'm guessing at least 350'.

Wow! SOM never fails to impress. I'm glad it is tall enough to make an impact on the skyline too.

With the S.D. central courthouse being built, I can tell S.D. is maturing. :) That is really excellent news for downtown. I hope this news is a precursor for more good things to come :) As beautiful as this design is, I believe that the impact on the skyline is an extraordinary accomplishment.

Make it a clean 400'. :)
