"Breaking ground on North Harbor Drive, this two-story, 42,000-square-foot multi-restaurant development is entering a year-long construction phase on the North Embarcadero bayfront and is being billed as an “extreme makeover of San Diego’s front porch.” I note Portside Pier was selected in 2015 to replace the iconic Anthony’s Fish Grotto and will total 20,111 square feet of public restaurant space with seating for 1,000 guests; it is slated for a late 2019 opening and will feature two rooftop bars, banquet space, a wrap-around second-floor walkway and viewing deck with panoramic views of San Diego Bay, plus docks for private boats and water taxis." - Candice Woo
