Why We Updated the Petition Title
We’ve updated the petition title to:
“Stop the 8-Story A Street Project — Protect Greater Golden Hill’s Livability and Historic Integrity.”

We made this change to better reflect what’s at stake for our community. The original language used the word “character,” which can unintentionally carry exclusionary meaning. While our intent was always to protect the scale, design, and livability of our neighborhood as outlined in the Greater Golden Hill Community Plan, we’ve chosen wording that is more inclusive and values-driven.

This change affirms our commitment to equity, community voice, and responsible growth — while staying true to our mission of defending the livability and historic integrity of Golden Hill.


New petition description:

We, the residents of Greater Golden Hill, urge city leaders to oppose the proposed 8-story, 180-unit A Street apartment project. This development is out of scale with our historic neighborhood, lacks meaningful community engagement, and falls short on affordability. Golden Hill deserves growth that respects our community and protects its characterhistoric scale and identity — not profit-driven overdevelopment.

Greater Golden Hill (Golden Hill and South Park) is one of San Diego’s most historic and architecturally distinct neighborhoods. The proposed 8-story A Street project would disrupt the neighborhood’s unique character,scale and identity, overwhelm its infrastructure, and set a damaging precedent for future large-scale development.

While we support more housing, this project has been advanced without true community input, does not provide sufficient affordable housing, and disregards protections for public health and safety as outlined in the Mayor’s Executive Order No. 2024-1.

We believe in growth that serves the community — not speculative interests. We call on our elected officials to oppose this project unless it is redesigned to align with the Greater Golden Hill Community Plan, meaningfully increase affordability, and scale appropriately for our neighborhood.

Join us in standing up for thoughtful, community-centered development. Sign this petition to protect Greater Golden Hill.
