It could be great for a family of introverts….🤣😂🤣
Corner of Anacapa and Ortega. The old Craviotto Brothers ironworks shop?
If they can’t make it work then no deal. The land belongs to the city. Affordable housing or nothing. If they lose money I don’t care. They bought the lease as it is. Not as a promise to acquire the land permanently. They are lying about the 6% profit anyway. They’d just charge more at the end and make a ton of money off of land that belongs to all of us.
Your paragraph regarding the Paseo Nuevo complex is incoherent. I just want to make sure other reasonable readers understand that "the city" can't actually build anything and that if developers "can't make it work" then we're not going to have housing, period - affordable or otherwise.

Taking a risk because you believe in a possibility of a future reward. Good point though, you are right. I guess you'd have to say you're working for something if you believe there's a probability of a future reward. Which is what it feels like -- other than no paycheck hitting, I do feel like I'll be paid back.
My point was that I think for most people in business, even though they consider personal compensation a major factor, they care a lot about their employees and even more so customers who put faith in us.
Liberal mental illness kicks in when they found out he supported Trump
I am so happy that our leaders are standing up for what's right.
Giving away public land for developers to make a profit is inexcusable. The developers say "we won't make enough money otherwise." Too bad. The land belongs to us. The city should only build affordable housing there and forget about getting a profit. If the developers can't make it work then let them take the loss... they bought temporary lease holding rights.
Regarding the Old Mission development... again, thank you for doing the bare minimum to prevent such an evil monstrocity from being built. The strain on emergency services personnel during a fire to evacuate or assist those buildings would be devastating. The traffic bottleneck would be so dangerous. It would take over a half hour to evacuate the project behind the Mission... 500 cars!!! That's like begging for the Camp Fire that happened in Paradise, CA to happen here. Unacceptable!
Go ELON go!
Is there a form I can fill out to ask the California Coastal Commission for a rebate? I’d like a financial settlement for the time wasted on the politically motivated anti @SpaceX comments and all time spent on how “scary launches are, and how they are Trump associated”- seems like the folks at VSFB are on the side of progress & innovation…..it really stymies me how California minds it’s business despite the stupidity on these commissions. How embarrassing for the CCC- @SpaceX ought to name the new launchpad after them! KABOOOOOM🚀
How about having Island Brewing move onto the island. They can play music as loud as they wish.
I worked for Andy and Dolly for several years, hung all his old photos in the new car garages, built the indoor swimming pool with FCI. Miss them both
How about asking one of them or talking to the Biltmore staff? There may be a reason that isn't obvious. Street parking in Santa Barbara and Goleta is very limited; I have attended meetings in the past where solutions to parking concerns are discussed for hours.
Tom - don't listen to poor Sully he is passive agressive 4sure I've watched the gardeners come to these medians and blow dirt for the last few years. Having a brain, anyone knows you can't just full speed with a gas blower, blow dirt. So absolutely valid and not OK to have a bunch of dirt blown next to a restaurant. Just poor management and poor decision making.
"achieve...a big exit" yeah, so you're not working for nothing.
Bummed to hear it, I don’t know of any other Neapolitan style pizza in SB. Wish I had gone there more often!
Yikes man. I’m a CEO and currently working for nothing so we can still pay our team, serve our customers and achieve profitability and maybe a big exit. I’d like a bigger boat as much as the next guy. Even the greediest of us might care about our employees or the long-term potential of something.
Really! Whatever!
Seriously Tristen..? Are you aware of how businesses work? Truly delusional.
“He didn’t want to close the doors and leave employees stranded, so he waited till he found the right person to take over.”
Wow, I wish there were more people like this in the world. Kudos to him! Also butter chicken pizza sounds amazing.
Why do all of the trade folks park along channel drive while working at the Biltmore and not using the staff parking lot ? It is impossible to find a place to park during the week starting at 7 am for beach walkers. It’s really gotten difficult over the past few months
Thank you
This is at the entrance to the Arlington
Yes, and I remember the LA Times when it was a thick paper every day. When I was growing up I also remember two newspapers back in Phoenix fifty years ago. The Arizona Republic in the morning and the Phoenix Gazette in the afternoon. Christine!, wha't your point?
Calling the Lower Riviera raffish?!
I will take the lower Riv over snotty Montecito any day!
Nope....
El Paseo
Afraid not, but good guess.
