Construction Safety

During the current phase of construction on the Children's Museum you are cautioned to be careful and report any problems.  In case you were wondering - YES the leaning wall is intentional and not a construction error.  Pictured here is the future Park that will replace the current parking lot at the corner of Island and Front.

Train Horns - Whatever Happened to the Quiet Zone?

Quiet is still on the way.  This is what CCDC has to say about the matter:

Your single source for information and contacts regarding the Quiet Zone Project in San Diego

Downtown San Diego, like many urban environments, has had a substantial increase in people living adjacent to railroad tracks and crossings. Noise and safety at downtown's rail crossings have become major concerns for residents and for CCDC. The Federal Government, through the FRA, has finalized legislation to limit the noise from train horns in residential areas. CCDC is moving forward with an application to designate downtown a Quiet Zone, and expects to complete the project by summer 2007. In order to establish a Quiet Zone, the railroad crossings are improved with safety enhancements such as additional gates and warning lights. For information about the Federal Government's Quiet Zone regulations, please visit the Web site: http://safetydata.fra.dot.gov/OfficeofSafety/Default.asp
