The long-planned restoration of Balboa Park’s storied Botanical Building finds itself on unsure footing with the city of San Diego failing to secure a construction firm to complete phase one improvements.
Thursday evening, Christina Chadwick, assistant deputy director for the parks department, told Balboa Park Committee participants that the city had rejected all bids for work and would need to rebid the project. No reason was provided.
“Following a thorough review, all proposals (for the Botanical Building construction contract) submitted were rejected,” Chadwick said during the meeting. “The city is now working as quickly as possible to reissue the bid solicitation . . While this isn’t the outcome the city had hoped for, the project remains on track and timelines remain uninterrupted.”

The plan to temporarily place an observation wheel in Balboa Park’s Plaza de Panama has been abandoned by proponents who are pointing to city bureaucracy and a vocal opposition group as insurmountable roadblocks.
“Regretfully, four months into this journey and after many hours dedicated to community outreach and responding to the city’s endless list of project action items, we’ve decided to walk away from the Balboa Park Star,” proponents said in a statement shared with the Union-Tribune.
The brain child of David Cohn of the Cohn Restaurant Group, the so-called Balboa Park Star was intended as a pandemic-friendly activity that could promote more foot traffic in the park at a time when many of the park’s other attractions museums and restaurants have limited or ceased their operations because of state and county regulations.
