The End of Real Nice Neighborhoods
San Diego is now the easiest city in California to get a permit quickly and at minimal expense for high rise apartment buildings and ADU studio apartment complexes. But, despite the abundance of new RE tax revenue, the city is choking on an enormous budget deficit and has to cut services!
SAVE Turquoise Street is an effort by locals to preserve what we love about San Diego: 52 neighborhoods with unique demographics; housing, food and music scenes, and history.
The variety and laid-back charm (and weather) makes San Diego special.
We ask the city leaders to only allow housing that enhances, not ruins neighborhoods.
The majority of locals can't afford luxury high-rise apartments.

Communities Getting Slammed by City
Major opposition to high-rise luxury apartments where they don't belong, and huge numbers of ADUs/Granny Flats on single family home lots




SAVE PB CAMPAIGN
if you like pacific beach and would like Turquoise street to remain as is...and not get a 23-story tower of luxury housing and airbnb rentals, ...email the mayor & city council, and tell them, no TOWER!
email the mayor: mayortoddgloria@sandiego.gov,
email the president of the city council: joelacava@sandiego.gov
Details: Beach properties page
An email is a legal document, the city has to record your opinion and save the email for 5 years.
signing a petition is good for uniting a community but a change.org petition is not a legal document that the city has to acknowledge.
Thank you, Toots, March 2026
Below: Turquoise Street, Pacific Beach. Permit request for 240'H tower with above ground parking garage for 300 cars to get built on the left
