It has finally happened; developers from the
BIG CITY have finally realized that there is a need to improve the quality of life here in Orange County. After hours and hours of in depth research a report was compiled to determine what was lacking in the lives of residents of the Tustin, Irvine, South East Santa Ana area. Many recommendations were developed into a plans that was submitted to the Tustin City council, and one was finally selected. Friday ground was broke at the corner of Jamboree and Barranca in Tustin on a portion of the former marine base.
Besides "life-style retailers", the plan calls for movie theaters, "upscale dining," cafes, specialty retailers and specialty grocers, The
Vestar Development Company also determined a need for promotional stores that will also be built. And to make sure there would be enough traffic in the area, another portion of the project will create 4,600 new housing units, and SIX MILLION SQUARE FEET OF COMMERCIAL SPACE.
When this is completed...
will you life be perfect in EVERY WAY???

Plan Calls For 4 Motocross Tracks To Be Built In Blimp Hanger.

With the closing of military bases at El Toro and Tustin, comes the question, what will be done with the land that has now become available. While contractors see it as more "Prime" land to build multi million dollar homes, military groups lean towards a military museum that will include preserving the 18 story blimp hangers. This week a group submitted plans to refurbish one hanger and build four motocross tracks. It is now in the hands of Tustin City officials to decide. With many building in the County being designated as historical sites protecting them from demolition, can at least one of these hangers be saved? Orange County sent many brave Marines to fight for our Country, just because the bases were closed does not mean we should tear down our memories!
