I read about how Cal Poly is planning to go ahead and build 400-plus houses, condos, apartments, or whatever they will be on that beautiful mountain on Grand Avenue, across from the 1,400-plus bed dorm already being built. Poly has so much more land to build on. It will be a crime defacing that mountain.
We’ve already had two years of construction trucks and heavy, loud cement trucks going up and down Grand Avenue five days a week from 7 a.m. to 4 or 5 p.m. Now, we’ll have two or more years of construction on Grand Avenue. When will it end?
I’m just hoping Grand Avenue doesn’t start to buckle under all of this! We will see.

It will end when there are fewer people who want to attend Cal Poly. All the construction is just a symptom of other things, like the lack of job opportunities for those without a degree (the biggest reason) and the growing population, etc.
