San Diego might soon see an explosion of painted murals, pedestrian plazas, decorative lighting and other upgrades designed to enhance the empty spaces in commercial districts and residential neighborhoods across the city.

Following the lead of Los Angeles and San Francisco, San Diego officials are proposing a new city “placemaking” ordinance to streamline the process for approving such upgrades and sharply reduce the permitting costs.

Those upgrades are called placemaking because they turn an empty lot or underutilized property into a notable “place,” by enhancing the pedestrian experience and boosting civic connections with gathering spots.
