San Diego just created a really neat area for pedestrians in Downtown San Diego. In this video we'll tour the Gaslamp Promenade, developed to give public space back to the people of San Diego and all who visit America’s Finest City. The Gaslamp Promenade will reinvent Fifth Avenue into eight distinctive plazas (from L Street to Broadway), fostering community by building a place for social connections, conversation, dining and entertainment.

Thank you so much for all the love you’ve shown our mutual hometown (well, not your current hometown, but, once a San Diegan, always one!)…

San Diego will always be my home! :)

Really glad to start seeing American cities do more projects like this - hope more to follow!

I hope so too!

@alexwallace6120 Год назад

Thanks for the video. I'm glad they closed off a part of the street, and is only for pedestrians. I wish you could picture Downtown San Diego when I moved there in 1988. They were just beginning to redevelop it. They put up the Convention center and one Trolly line. They had a indoor/outdoor Mall called Horton Plaza, which I loved, as there were many stores, and some restaurants, plus a food court and multi-plex movie theater on top. They knocked down so many old buildings, Even the YMCA ,and 2 old movie theaters, that were quite run down and seedy. I only stayed living downtown a few months, had a minor robbery, so I moved to North Park, as I worked in Hillcrest.

@YellowProductions Год назад

Thanks Alex! I'm born and raised in San Diego and although I was a "young'n" I definitely remember downtown in the 80's! And we used to go to the Horton Plaza foodcourt a ton as I was growing up. I loved the Cinnamon Rolls and Steak Escape there

@chall7688 Год назад

Thanks for the daytime tour of the Gaslamp! Love all your videos, so thoughtful about what people might want to see. And you are right.👍

The way my younger self gasped at the now-closed Urban Outfitters. 😅😂

@p.ipebomb Год назад

I believe the project isn't even done yet, I believe they will be removing all the sidewalks in the Gaslamp and replace all the concrete roads with that red Spanish tile you can see where the barriers are and possibly add more greenery along the promenade...gonna be beautiful, definitely should keep building more like this, especially with such a Mediterranean influence in our city and climate...

@YellowProductions Год назад

That'll be neat!

Just came back from San Diego and wasn't even aware this was new. It was my first ever visit there. Loved the Gaslamp District! Place was really hopping at night on the weekend. The street was packed with people. Made for a great experience.

@YellowProductions 11 месяцев назад

I hope they make it look a little more permanent and spread out the parklets instead of just being in the former parking spots. They could also add some benches and trees in the middle too. This is really cool!

Happy to see San Diego is cleaning the streets. There were too many homeless people last time I visited, and was worried if it's going to turn into another San Francisco downtown where I used to live. I'll be going back to Gaslamp area knowing city is doing their job

I miss the Gaslamp from 20 years ago. Karina's Cantina used to be Olé Madrid and the smoke shop on F St. used to be Café Lulu. I used to work in the Gaslamp before moving to New Mexico. I go to Pizza on 5th, Whiskey Girl, Tin Roof, Taste & Thirst, Garage, and Werewolf for lunch, and go to the Star Bar for cheap drinks. Chris, did you cover India St. in Little Italy yet? I like it better than Gaslamp.

@sergpie 2 месяца назад

I loved Cafe Lulu. I was there almost every weekend (2004-2007) along with the Egyptian Tea Room near state. The Gaslamp was more alive until more or less the time that Sam Goody’s closed at Horton, I saw that as a sign lol

@YellowProductions Год назад

If you like Zoos you should go the San Diego Zoo and skip the LA Zoo. The LA zoo is lame in comparison to the SD Zoo. Watch my zoo video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m3spfHQbDPM.html

@edvaira6891 Год назад

5:50…I think Ike’s actually hasn’t opened yet…they’re expanding throughout the county and I believe the San Diego downtown location was supposed to open in late May but they delayed until mid July (and the movie theatre you passed actually closed before the pandemic hit…)

@YellowProductions Год назад

Ah... ok... thanks for the report on both Ikes and the Movie Theater... it was like a candy shop for awhile after the movie theatre right?

@DarvakSondrath 8 месяцев назад

Placing in the bollards was only the first part of the plan, the project isnt complete yet. They will completely redo the street, to look more like a walkable promenade, rather than a road for cars. To my knowledge this has already been fully approved, its just a matter of 'when', rather than 'if'.

@augustaugust7667 Год назад

You should never ever tell people to go to downtown San Diego I was born and raised here in San Diego and you definitely don't want to tell people to go down there It's an awful place your video shows that all they did is put up some steel barriers They didn't even make it into an attractive brick laid promenade.... But most importantly downtown is now riddled with crime from all the thousands of homeless that are living there nobody but nobody should go down there If I meet anybody anywhere and they ask me about San Diego I tell them don't ever ever go downtown

@lovethesunnyD Год назад

Wow. I live downtown and you are so wrong. It’s a great place to visit, have a drink and people watch for awhile. Take your doom and gloom elsewhere.

@kjdinoc 11 месяцев назад

@@lovethesunnyDThat's not true. I live here too and I know how bad it's become. Some people are just more able to ignore it and look past it than others. There are videos all over youtube showing how bad it is. Even this guy mentions it. He even found a crazy aggressive one for your viewing pleasure. Todd is finally trying to clean it up. I really hope he succeeds because I love the GasLamp. 15:28
