Pacifica City World Trade Center
Its finally here! Enjoy!
The Ocean View Apartments occupied the site before the WTC, but the projects have been relocated to a new location.
The projects were simultaneously imploded at 11AM PST. Soon after, crews started clearing debris.
Days later, construction began on the towers and roads. A portion of Pacific Ave. was closed due to road widening.
The Pacific Sphere is visible from the construction site. A major tourist attraction, it is expected to get 100,000-200,000 more visitors after the construction project is complete.
Further down Pacific Ave, construction cranes are still visible.
Only months later, the first towers are visible. Part of the plan also includes a subway station that will be the main hub for Pacifica's New Subway System, slated for completion in 2011.
Finally! The main section is complete!
The entire complex is completed only 2 years after the begining of the project! It includes 8 Office Buildings, an IMAX Theatre, an Exhibition Hall, 2 underground parking garages with over a combined total of 6,000 parking spots, 3 Hotels, a transportation hub, and a stadium which is slated to be completed this summer. The trees are a mix of naitive trees to the area, a feature planned by architect William Austria.
The Westin Hotel and Carter Performing Arts center are visible, as well as the Bailey Memorial Stadium, which is opening this summer. A light rail line connects different venues in the city, installed for the Summer Simlympics Bid.
