Last month, the San Elijo Hills Development Co. announced it was in talks with working with a retail developer regarding the second phase of the Towncenter.
SAN MARCOS — For more than a decade, as rooftops went up around them, three high-profile lots in the commercial heart of the master-planned San Elijo Hills community have been vacant — and residents of the affluent south San Marcos neighborhood have waited for a change.
Now, there is at least a sign that the dirt could give way to development.
Late last month, the San Elijo Hills Development Co. — a subsidiary of developer HomeFed Corp. — posted an online announcement stating it was “thrilled to share that we are working with an experienced and proven retail developer toward an agreement to build the second phase of the Towncenter.”
“We realize residents of San Elijo Hills have been waiting a long time… and we are excited to tell you about this progress,” said the announcement, on sanelijohills.com.

I heard that more housing development might be in the works for that large plot of dirt. Retail housing!
12 housing units on downhill side and retail, restaurants, and maybe office on uphill side with parking and breeze ways etc.. Looks like what most residents are asking for a reasonable mix of uses, density, elevation and parking.
Sounds good, but the housing could have been omitted.
Sure but they are down from 70 based on resident pressure.
We need more restaurants please!
Anonymous – Concept on the table now has real restaurant set ups if they will come, plumbing, grease traps, outdoor seating etc.. Sure would be great!
I hope only independents and very small chains are allowed to build. We need a Snooze, Larkburger and Garbanzo Mediterranean Grill to come in. If you don’t know these small chains take a look and you will probably want them too.
After 12 years waiting, I am far from being excited about the fact that they are talking about it.
Just do it !…..
