Plus that is an older pic. If you took a photo from that same spot today it would be much more impressive. There is a 470 foot Hotel, a 30 floor condo tower, four 22 or 24 floor condo towers, and a nice hotel u/c that is popping up above the convention center. I believe they would all be visible from that spot. I'll try and post some other pics in here soon. :booze: schmidt April 7th, 2003, 11:43 PM Now I know why it's said that S. Diego looks like Perth, both are almost EQUAL, both of them even have a "triangle-top" building! 8 to S.

One or two 600+ fters could really add some dimension to the skyline. 7.5 biskit May 3rd, 2003, 07:27 PM Damn i love san diego, I cant wait to visit again. the skyline does look a lot better in person AppetjoekII May 4th, 2003, 05:02 PM Nice 8/10:cheers: alex3000 May 10th, 2003, 05:52 AM I expected a lot less. 8/10 Javier August 6th, 2003, 09:52 PM 8/10 I want to see the dinosaur...:D Fabio August 19th, 2003, 04:41 AM 8/10 Nice skyline.

However, there is a lot of discussion about moving the airport since it is quite small with one runway and little expansion, which would lift the restriction.

DamienK December 12th, 2004, 04:06 PM 7/10 DunceConfederacy December 12th, 2004, 09:49 PM 7. First time i've seen san diego's skyline. I like it, but it could be bigger and I'm sure it will be in a few years. mello December 22nd, 2004, 07:06 AM right now I think it really is a 6 out of 10. Many more "filler towers" in the 400 to 500 foot range are on the way. The skyline will get a real boost once the FAA lifts it height restriction for certain sections of downtown. Developers are salivating to build 650 to 750 foot towers and this is when the rating will perhaps jump up to the 8 to 8.5 level. Lets keep our fingers crossed that common sense will prevail with the FAA. :drunk: MIMICA December 27th, 2004, 06:19 AM I always love visiting San Diego. The skyline is alittle small for the size of the city, but it has awsome progress and potential...I give it a 7! :) Imperial March 10th, 2005, 08:06 PM I love this city 10/10 hauntedheadnc March 11th, 2005, 06:39 PM Quite nice!

It's a 5 minute walk from downtown... 40748246 June 11th, 2005, 08:00 PM Low skyline because of zoning laws, but very modern and well grouped. sd_urban June 25th, 2005, 11:35 PM More San Diego..... http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/40871276.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/340852571mkpSWP_ph.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/339672346mBYcjK_ph.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/318572827dqYPJO_ph.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/329323017aOTNyJ_ph.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/280981210eikwIs_ph.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/chili_11_bg_081504.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/113331807vskIaz_ph.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y120/Jaygergon/Panoramic%20views/122827402JjVLUI_ph.jpg SDfan June 27th, 2005, 05:32 AM The deserves an 8. It has a great lay-out, and some beautiful high-rises. It will be a 10 regardless of height when all of the condo developments are done in the next five years or so. All these pics are great. mello June 27th, 2005, 06:09 AM wow sd urban those new photos are really nice. I think once Electra, Lane Field tower (what ever it ends up being) and the other Bosa Highrises on Pacific Highway are complete the skyline will really being rocking. I'm surprised no one has taken a panoramic shot from the far western end of Harbor Island. I swear to garsh, go down there at Sunset and take a pano from that angle. There are a couple of restaurants under renovation right now on the bay so you can drive in to the parking lot and snap a pic. Some one hit that up! The skyline looks huge from there and Pinnacle really fills the gap between One America and the Hyatt complex from that angle. :eek2: dewback June 29th, 2005, 10:22 AM The skyline might be limited, but its very original compared to other American skylines. Also, don't forget the charm. SDfan June 29th, 2005, 07:53 PM San Diego has an odd skyline for a metro of 3 million. Its short, but what it lacks height it makes up with good architecture...for the most part. Some of the newer condo towers have been somewhat dissapointing...cough cough, allegro tower...la Vita...park place...:) sdtj June 29th, 2005, 10:51 PM Yeah, but the City it self has only...1.3 million.. I think we are doing just fine. I http://www.burgarden.educ.goteborg.se/elevakt/elevsidor/hemsida/Bildarkiv/images/heart_gif.jpg San Diego Surpassing the 3 million mark, San Diego County grew by 41,000 people in 2003 to hit 3,017,300 as of Jan. 1, 2004, reports the California Department of Finance. The county remains the third largest in California, but only trailing Orange County by 100 residents. But next year, San Diego should be the state's second largest county, still far behind No. 1 Los Angeles, which had 10.1 million residents as of Jan. 1. The city of San Diego's population grew by 12,600, or 1 percent, in 2003, opening Jan. 1, 2004 with 1.29 million citizens. The city remains the state's second largest, trailing Los Angeles' 3.9 million and ahead of San Jose's 926,200. Of California a city with populations less than 300,000, Chula Vista was the fifth fastest growing in 2003, adding 8,500 to hit 209,100. Also, Murrieta in Riverside County, which is in many respects a suburb of San Diego County, was the third fastest growing, adding 9,400 residents for a total of 77,700. The fastest growing was Elk Grove, adding 23,200 to hit 109,100, followed by Bakersfield, which added 10,800 to hit 279,700. The only city in San Diego County recording negative growth was National City, down 3,000 people, or 5 percent, to 60,000. http://media.maps.com/magellan/Images/SANDME-W1.gif http://www.sdbizguide.com/images/region_map.gif http://img148.echo.cx/img148/1522/gaslamp20sz.jpg http://img148.echo.cx/img148/8163/gaslamp17am.jpg http://img148.echo.cx/img148/400/horizons12le.jpg http://img148.echo.cx/img148/6264/sandiego2sized5nb.jpg http://img23.echo.cx/img23/5987/sf17nx.jpg B@dGuYoM June 29th, 2005, 11:30 PM 8.5/10 SDfan June 30th, 2005, 03:40 AM Again sdtj those pics are great :) . The county is booming, but as you can see its slowed down a lot. Im so excited for the other bay area cities (National City, Chula Vista...). Have you seen some of the developments that are being planned? Theres a 24 story tower in National City called Park Village here for anyone that wants to see it: http://www.parkvillagenc.com/ I mean this is outside of Downtown, even the the mid and uptown districts. Things are looking good on the bayside. Wezza June 30th, 2005, 10:37 AM Not bad. 7/10. More talls would be nice though. VanSeaPor July 5th, 2005, 08:07 AM Low skyline because of zoning laws, but very modern and well grouped. Zoning laws? I hate them, they stop a great city greating a great skyline. A victimless crime.

At least were considerablly dense in comparison. My thoughts, you have big expectations. ;) nerazzurri December 14th, 2005, 04:52 AM Where is the house where the guys from the Real World: San Diego at? sd_urban December 15th, 2005, 06:03 AM Where is the house where the guys from the Real World: San Diego at?

It is called CityView and it is located on 17th St. I was wondering if anyone could tell me about that area. Is there any projects going on in that area like right next to the highway? I'll be right off Broadway right before the highway, so I want to know if that area is hopping with development? sandiego_bound February 1st, 2006, 04:46 PM I really believe the only thing that is holding San Diego back from developing the buildings we all dream of is the current decision makers of the city. I believe that if they were all changed out with those people who are willing to take on the FAA's ruling and build a 800ftr. then I think we could get it. The only thing is, as of yet have we had the need for an 800ftr.? I sure as hell think so!

The skyline has grown since I was there about 3 years ago - it looks so much more "full" and grown up. While it may not be that tall, it still looks great and the setting is fantastic; the bay area is absolutely terrific. 9/10 I say - it doesn't need loads of height to look fantastic :) seajer July 2nd, 2006, 10:27 PM San Diego is so beautiful.

For a city it's size, not a huge skyline, but it's in the shadow of LA and doesn't really need it. Lots of modern buildings and glass, and that fits well with the harbour setting and the weather. Good density too.

There's a small sense of disappointment, since San Diego proper has over a million people, but nonetheless I like it. I think that this falls in line with what I said about Moscow's skyline, in that it probably would look better in person.
