There's a four-story apartment building being planned for a busy corner on a major street in Point Loma, but neither neighbors nor the local Peninsula Planning Board can get any details on the project out of the City of San Diego. It's coming in at the former site of the San Diego County Credit Union building.
Residents are very concerned about impacts on the community from the project at 1400 Rosecrans, at the intersection with Talbot. For instance, the 56-unit complex would be built literally next door to the Cabrillo Elementary School.
Point Loma resident, Mark Cervantes spoke to CBS8:
“We’re skeptical that this thing can really fit into our community here and not have real impacts that’ll be long-lasting."
Yet, residents' concerns are not being met with details from the city. Neighbors are so concerned, they are forming an organized group and are demanding answers. Chair of the Peninsula Community Planning Board's Project Review Committee, Eric Law, has been down to the City and cannot get any info on the project nor will they allow him to see the plans.
