Yes Quarry Falls will get built. You don’t spend 6
+ years working with the neighborhood communities on a project of this scope and then not build it. Obviously the market dictates the pace at which it will be built. I am proud of what our company has designed for the redevelopment of a quarry. It will be a model for future development in this city and what communities should expect from their developers.
The fact of the matter is that San Diego will grow over the next 30 years. You can either put your head in the sand and not realize it and then end up with a shortage of housing and rush poorly designed and planned residential product into the market or you can do what Quarry Falls did. Spend years working with the City, the community, environmentalist etc. and create a project that truly is a model for future development. There will always be people against projects like this but a lot of those people would also like to put a fence around the city and not allow your kids, my kids, or even their kids the opportunity to live in a great place like San Diego.
Oh and yes I love cars. I grew up with a father who collected them and I think there is absolutely nothing wrong with admiring the workmanship and creativity of your fellow humans. Some people like the art of a painting hanging all the wall…I personally like the art of a 1961 Ferrari GT Spider California. *DROOL*
