I had Cabrillo community garden since 2014 across the street before that it was urban roots
I don’t mind the increased residential density along that part of Voltaire, where appropriate, but the demand by the city that the street level space must be retail or restaurant has been gigantic failure. This is not Philly or DC or NYC, this is San Diego.
The street level retail enables the city to approve fewer parking spaces. The idea is that a parking space will be used by a business during the day and the working residents would use the parking space at night. The details were rather fuzzy about restaurants and at-home work spaces. That was then this is now. Is Voltaire a transit corridor? Fewer parking spaces required. It is all about parking.
