San Diego's new land-use proposal for Hillcrest would add 50,000 more residents and taller buildings
San Diego planning officials unveiled an ambitious new land-use proposal recently for Hillcrest that would add 50,000 more residents. The zoning changes would allow for 20- to 30-story buildings, and create one-way streets, lots of bike lanes and new public promenades. The city is now seeking public comment on the plan. Hillcrest would need to undergo many changes to handle the upzoning, likely including some upgrades to public transit.
I wonder if it is also possible to integrate Balboa Park more directly into the community to help make this an attractive place for everyone. Austin Neudecker, Weave Growth YES: I love Hillcrest. I lived there for several years and frequently return. Yet, to grow our local economy and contain housing costs, we need additional development. The current plan feels aggressive and overly dependent on this specific area to burden substantial growth.
