"The Port of San Diego’s ongoing, locally-minded $2 million transformation of Seaport Village is nearing completion, with a wave of San Diego–owned businesses slated to arrive on the bayfront by Spring/Summer 2022. The complex is at about 90% occupancy (63 of roughly 71 spaces), and Retail Insite’s Allison Campbell says there are three dedicated food spots remaining, though high interest from the hospitality sector has some prospective tenants considering converting existing retail spaces. The Lighthouse and Carousel districts are being filled with tasting rooms, coffee shops, and new full- and fast-casual restaurants along the boardwalk." - Candice Woo
