Wow, much better. At 37-stories/415 feet, this will add a nice amount of density to the skyline here. In fact, this whole area is filling in really well. The 36-story tower at Union and Ash is topped off now. Savina is also 36 stories and is a couple blocks to the west. The Lindley is 37 stories, and I think they're still planning a couple towers on the City's land two blocks to the east. We just need someone to build Two America Plaza now.

Good height and massing. I like how slim it looks from the east and west.
Architecture wise, it leaves a lot of room for improvement though. Rather bland, generic design and cheap materials. Should place the parking garage underground and get rid of the podium. Would've liked to see a higher % affordable component included as well. |

I agree with the architecture comment. It's got this awkward facade that makes it look like two separate buildings were plopped on top of each other, neither of which are that interesting to look at. But yeah the massing is good. As for the parking garage, looking at the sheets it appears that all parking is underground. |

The giant parking lot right next to that lot is criminal use of waterfrontage. Who owns it?

Fairmont Continues US Expansion with Signing of Fairmont Manchester San Diego Scheduled for 20271160 RoomsSan Diego Demand Trends Fairmont Hotels Accor 4 min read19 January 2023 Follow Fairmont Manchester San Diego — Photo by Accor Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, part of world leading hospitality group Accor, and Manchester Financial Group today announced the signing of definitive agreements for the development and management of a Fairmont hotel in downtown San Diego, California. Scheduled to open in 2027, Fairmont Manchester San Diego will occupy a prime location on the North Embarcadero of the San Diego Bay, directly across from the USS Midway Aircraft Museum, adjacent to the Cruise Ship Terminal, and within walking distance of the San Diego Convention Center and the famed Gaslamp Quarter. The hotel is part of a landmark development transforming San Diego's downtown waterfront with over 5 acres of green space and more than 1.7 million square feet of best-in-class offices, retail, restaurants, public art and entertainment. The elegant 36-story glass tower will feature 1,160 rooms, including 69 suites and Fairmont Gold, the brand's distinctive hotel-within-a-hotel experience boasting VIP service, exclusive lounge and private reception desk. High-end amenities will include luxury spa and fitness facilities, rooftop pool, and more than 120,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting space, including two 20,000 square-foot ballrooms. The hotel will welcome both guests and locals to six dining venues, including a 160-seat signature restaurant, coastal Baja cuisine, noodle shop, rooftop poolside grill, gourmet café, and lobby bar, each offering both indoor and outdoor seating to take advantage of San Diego's picturesque weather. Working in close collaboration with Accor's Luxury Design & Technical Services team, Gensler will serve as both architect and interior designer for the development, bringing to life a unique contemporary vision, melding Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern influences. The soaring all-glass façade will be warmed and illuminated by touches of bronze. The interiors will be adorned with rich fabrics, large-scale art installations, and vibrant pops of blue and bronze, framing unmatched views of the San Diego Bay and city skyline, and flowing seamlessly into exterior spaces, giving the building a sense of place along the waterfront. |

If you're going to block Pacific Gateway, at least make it prettier...

Who designs this and actually think it looks nice?
It’s literally an insult to our city to have something so ugly and underwhelming on a prime bay view spot. Even the room interior looks dated and gross, and by 2027 it will be even more so. |

Isn't Chula Vista outside of any flight restrictions? They should go all out and build supertalls. Do what Downtown can't.
Realistically speaking, this area could become a next University City at the very least. It's got good transit and freeway links. The Gaylord development is going up nearby. |
