Embarcadero (San Diego)

The Embarcadero is home to the San Diego cruise ship terminal, the museum ships USS Midway and Star of India, seven other historic vessels belonging to the Maritime Museum of San Diego, and various restaurants and shops from the North Embarcadero down through Seaport Village.

It also included public art displays, tree groves and open spaces, while continuing San Diego's tradition of having a working waterfront, according to Port plans.

However, the proposed redevelopment project was sent back to the drawing boards in April 2010 when the California Coastal Commission rejected it.

In the plan rejected by the Coastal Commission, the park had been replaced by a smaller, hardscape plaza.

The site in consideration is approximately 70 acres of land and water that includes Seaport Village, Santa Monica Seafood (formerly Chesapeake Fish), and surrounding areas between the Manchester Grand Hyatt and the USS Midway Museum.
