How do you know someone is a Nth generation Santa Barbara local?
They tell you.
The high-end hotel comment is so out-of-touch, come on.
Downtown work force Housing with de la Guerra Platz a lush green Park to be used by anyone and everyone, an old school town square, impromptu concerts, Art exhibitions, meet ups, a place to sit and enjoy, Skys the limit, a place for "the People", i.e. Locals!
Amen! my thought exactly... what we need is more housing!! perfect spot for Downton housing with de la Guerra Platz has a lush green park ( what it could be) for all to enjoy. Imagine a place for impromptu concerts, meet ups, local Art exhibitions,
and and and a local place for locals to enjoy.
Dan, who's going to pay to buy the NP site and turn it into low income housing?
The MarBorg series is great journalism. I don't personally have a stake in garbage collection fees but I understand that others in the community do. Having someone finding facts on unclear issues that affect many is invaluable.
I would happily give massages in that nook!
26 E Haley St. Haley Hotel
Save the Pressroom, and build multistory apartments on the NP site. Low income housing, of course.
I drove by the story poles today at Los Carneros / Calle Real. I have NO idea how they will fit 14 one-bedroom apartments, an office, and parking for all those tenants in the space. Nutty.
I don't understand what the News- Press is doing besides a slow motion sinking.
High end hotel …????????♀️ … that’s the last thing we need… enough hotels already. It should be something for the locals, to bring them back to down town.
The money that would cost to build a new police station could be spent on the mold problem, but less money renovation still be under the cost of a new station it will be by the old one
I think as a local 10th generation, Santa Barbara is where the new suppose. Police department should be plenty of parking.
Another quirk of 21 E. Quinto was that the kitchen didn't have room for a fridge. The agent said the former owner kept one in the laundry room.
This would be a perfect place for the police station! But there may be mold issues in the basement from water damages in the past.
Please use the words higgledy piggledy and brokerbabble as often as possible ????
I have tried Kitchenette's veggie lasagne and the turkey meatballs and both were delicious and provided generous servings! Highly recommend.
Thank you for saying that! I’ve been thinking the very same thing. Jeez, not sure why putting your cans curbside is SUCH a big deal or why they keep digging at Marborg. Surely there is much more important issues to report on!
Well written, interesting and fine photos - thanks.
Yes, it's appreciated that the real estate postings aren't uniformly glowing, with the usual over the top smarmy words to describe a property. A bit of critical wording makes for much better reading.
You’ve really got an ax to grind with Marborg. I’ve never seen someone so obsessed with curbside garbage collection
Nothing compares to the quality of Comedor. And with all the condiments that go with it, it's well worth the $$!
“Trippy” is a misguided term for a very intention, long-dreamt up space for ALL kids to play. It’s a creative design with a long fundee tree aiding effort to bring sb an inclusive playground.
The real Karens are those drawing media attention to this situation. Old entitled white people who need something new to complain about
