Project Purpose
The Theatre District Living and Learning Neighborhood includes five buildings adjacent to UC San Diego’s Joan and Irwin Jacobs Theatre District that will provide new housing for undergraduate students, academic and meeting spaces, restaurants and retail space. Design features include pedestrian and bicycle improvements, a significant amount of open space and outdoor gathering areas, and underground parking (an increase of more than 300 parking spaces from the existing two lots, P102 and P103).
Location and Duration
Construction of the Theatre District Living and Learning Neighborhood will begin on January 4, 2021, and continue through the opening of the neighborhood in the fall of 2023. Please reference this map of the affected area.
Immediate Parking Lot, Street Traffic, and Pedestrian Impact
- Parking Lots P103 and P102 will be closed starting Monday, January 4, 2021. The new Scholars Parking Structure at North Torrey Pines Living and Learning Neighborhood will open over Winter Break, fully replacing the spaces that will temporarily be offline until the Theatre District Living and Learning Neighborhood parking structure is complete. Additional parking is also available at the Osler Parking Structure, located at the intersection of Gilman Drive and Osler Lane.
- Sections of Scholars Drive South and Revelle College Drive will experience reduced lane widths, but will maintain two-way traffic during construction. Intermittent lane re-alignments and slow zones will begin as early as Tuesday, December 22, 2020, and continue through the spring of 2021.
- Ridge Walk (from Argo Hall to P103) will be reduced in width during construction. Pedestrian and micromobility travel is encouraged along the alternate pathway on the east side of Galbraith Hall.
Please follow signs and allow extra time while traveling in this area.
