Although the costs to be born by the city of Oceanside are nearly double the original estimate by the builder, Malkin, this great project continues to get the support of the City Council, and major local interest groups.

I can't say enough how excited I am to see major investment and redevelopment continue in Oceanside. When I first visited Oceanside about 18 months ago when searching for affordable coastal real estate I instantly fell in love - both with what the coastal community was, and what it could become. I live only 30 minutes north, but this place, Oceanside, combines the best of San Clemente (pier), Dana Point (harbor), and Newport Beach (flat/broad sandy beach) all in one. What it has lacked is a focus on tourism. Fortunately, this is about to change. Although Oceanside is great as it is, and the harbor and 101 have plenty of eateries, I know I'm looking forward to the next 5 years when we should see some major positive additions on the coast!
