Trolley impact in UTC

[svelte]

I’d say if the house is close enough to hear the trolly, price might be negative affected. If it’s close enough to walk to the trolly but not hear it, price is probably positively affected.

I remember sitting in my friend’s house in the Bay Area and hearing a whoosh! in the background. What was that? We asked. He and his wife sheepishly admitted that BART went by overhead about 1 lot over behind their house. We hadn’t noticed it while outside.

It really was not a big deal and after thinking about it, I don’t think it would have affected my buy decision at all, though I may have used it as a bargaining chip. Now, if BART had a horn on it, that would probably change my perspective.

Just random thoughts. Off to the gym now…

Most of the proposed path (until UTC/north UC) is along existing train lines. So homeowners already have the noise impact of louder amtrak and coaster trains.

The proposed paths through clairemont/mission bay/bay ho should not be adversely affected since they already have train and freeway noise.

The folks along gilman – if they do the red or green proposed routes…. Well, that might be a factor.

Sounds like MTS prefers the RED route:

The estimated completion date is 2016.

My read:
As a former UCSD student, I can say with some certainty that housing is the biggest non-fee expense for students.
So much so, I believe it actually dissuades some students from going there.
Unless you have a car, it can be tough.

(EG: The house that me, Rich and 4826 Monongahela used to live in. More burned spoons than I have ever seen in one place.)

You have to live nearby or near a bus line or have a car.
With a trolley line, you could live in east El Cajon.

Hell, you could live in TJ.

I think this will be a huge net positive for the school and by extension the University City area.

Honestly, UTC would be pretty irrelevant without a major university next door.
So those things go together.
