Watch CCDC’s New Downtown Video
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this video speaks volumes describing and depicting the power of the waterfront and the rise of downtown San Diego. For so many reasons and so many people, downtown San Diego is emerging as the most exciting city on the western seaboard and the growth is amazing with no end in sight.
World class restaurants, theater, cruise ships, hotels, booming convention center, Petco Park, Balboa Park and a mild year round climate are just a few of the reasons this downtown has become a destination place. And, this is just the beginning. There’s so much more to come!

If I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a thousand times: “There’s too much inventory downtown. It’s a bubble! It’s going to burst! Prices will fall like a stone!” Well, hysterics aside, let’s take a look at the real picture which means, the big picture which means, taking the long term view as well as the current view and combining it with some important economic factors. Then, I believe the hysteria will melt away and in the foreseeable future, San Diego downtown will rise again with a vengeance. The following article by Alan Nevin of Marketpointe Realty Advisors, featured in the September 2007 Metropolitan Magazine, is a great, well researched article and helps outline and clarify the facts. I invite your feedback and look forward to your responses. Excerpt:
Downtown’s Shrinking New Condo Inventory As builders stop building, the supply of homes no longer is bottomless It has been almost a year since we broached the topic of the Downtown condominium market in this column. Yes, things have changed, and despite the glut of negative press, the glut of condominiums some predicted has not materialized, and business isn’t so bad. The resale market is holding up rather nicely. The inventory of active resale listings at the end of July was 492 compared to 613 one year ago. Days on market remain at about 90. That is a lot longer than ordinary (60 days), but condominiums are selling.

The redevelopment and revitalization of San Diego’s downtown neighborhoods is quickly becoming a west coast phenomenon
Emerging as a world-class Pacific Rim city, the skyline is changing rapidly and incorporating soaring new high-rises amidst colorful and historic treasures from the city’s early beginnings. Without much argument, San Diego enjoys the best weather in the country year round. Ask anyone who lives or visits here to verify that fact. Besides the weather, a World Class Zoo, beaches and Balboa Park museums to enjoy, there are endless varieties of sports and activities for every interest.
Today there are eight separate districts in this 2.2 square mile downtown, each with a separate and distinctive charm. From Cortez Hill with stunning views of city and bay to the newly emerging Columbia District on the North Embarcadero there are many diverse and exciting areas to explore.

At the risk of angering some of my colleagues with this article, I’m going to go out on a limb here and state my case which ultimately, will show the benefits to all parties – buyers, sellers and agents. Downtown San Diego is quickly becoming a national and international destination. People are relocating here for work, retirement, second, third and fourth homes and demand is stimulating the growth. That growth translates into high rises that are rapidly changing the skyline. Views today – maybe not tomorrow.
Being informed and up to date on proposed projects and approved projects and their impact on existing high rises is of critical importance. Buyers need to know before making an offer what their view is going to look like two, three, five, ten years from now. This is a disclosure like any other disclosure in real estate. More than once, I have heard an out of area agent dispensing inaccurate information. My dilemma becomes, “Should I correct them and risk offending or say nothing and both of us face a future lawsuit for failure to disclose pertinent information?”

PLAY BALL! Those words were first heard in April 2004 at the first game at the new downtown stadium, Petco Park built for the San Diego Padres. Since then, the explosion of activity in this 325 acre neighborhood has taken downtown by storm. Home to many artists, studios, galleries and shops, this area, dubbed the “Soho of the West” will eventually be home to the new Main Library and parks and a dramatic system linking Balboa Park to San Diego Bay. Over 30 condominium towers and mixed-use projects are underway or newly completed and this dynamic area is on its’ way to an exciting finish.
