San Diego City Council moves forward with ‘Midway Rising’ Sports Arena development after 7-1 vote. Mayor ToddGloria says the redevelopment 'represents big city energy.' It includes a new ~15,500 seat arena and over 4,000 new apartments.
SAN DIEGO – The San Diego City Council Tuesday approved a negotiating agreement with developers who plan to revamp about 50 acres in the Midway district, including the Sports Arena area.
Midway Rising is proposing 4,250 new homes — 2,000 affordable, 250 middle-income, and 2,000 market rate; a 450,000-square-foot arena with capacity for 14,500-16,500 people; a 200-room hotel and 250,000 square feet of retail and more than 11 acres of park and open space along with a 9.4-acre public plaza.
Chelsea is responsible for the project’s affordable housing and Legends is tasked with the arena. Zephyr will construct market-rate housing if negotiations proceed to that point. “I want affordable housing and I want affordable housing as fast as possible, but I want to vote for something I can believe,” he said. “For this reason, I cannot support the city staff’s recommendation today.”Before the vote Tuesday, it was reported that developer Brad Termini, founder and owner of Zephyr, gave $100,000 to Gloria’s 2020 mayoral campaign and had not disclosed 10 lawsuits his company has been embroiled in over unrelated development projects.
San Diego’s interim Chief Operating Officer Jay Goldstone chalked up much of the concern to other developers trying to gain an advantage in the selection of the project. He said city staff had done due diligence in investigating past litigation. Assistant City Attorney Leslie Fitzgerald echoed Goldstone’s remarks, saying the City Attorney’s office had found nothing that merited additional caution in the previous litigation in Monterey County.
In May of this year, the council then trimmed down a shortlist of five to the current one of three, which includes the Gloria-favored Midway Rising as well as Midway Village+ and Hometown SD.
