Turquoise Tower
Project Vela
A proposed 23-story tower in North Pacific Beach, near the La Jolla border would include 74 residential units, 10 of which are affordable, and 139 visitor accommodation units.
NFABC believes this project raises unresolved legal, infrastructure, public-safety, and housing-policy questions that deserve careful review.
IN THE NEWS
“High Rise. High Stakes” - Union-Tribune Opinion
The San Diego Union-Tribune featured opposing views on the proposed Turquoise Tower. NFABC argues that a 23-story projectominated by visitor accommodations does little to address San Diego’s affordability crisis.

Why Your Support Matters
NFABC is doing the legal and technical work needed to challenge the Turquoise Tower project, including legal counsel, expert review, City records review, technical analysis, and detailed review of the developer’s claims.
Your support gives NFABC the resources to keep that work moving as the City’s review continues and to respond quickly as the review moves forward.
We are not simply objecting to the project. We are challenging the legal and technical basis being used to justify it.
