The comment period for a proposed redevelopment of East Harbor Island for a Topgolf and Waterfront Park Project is open, Port of San Diego officials have announced.
The port published a Draft Environmental Impact Report for the project, with the public comment period open through Aug. 24.
The project, if approved, would entail a 10.1-acre public waterfront park with a promenade, plaza areas, playgrounds, restrooms and public art. It also includes a 16.5-acre section designated as an entertainment district, with 9.8 of those acres set aside for the popular arcade/driving range company Topgolf. The remainder is slated as “eatertainment” concepts, to be determined by a competitive public solicitation process.
Additionally, the proposal calls for realignment of Liberator Way with new public parking, sidewalks, planting buffers and reconfiguration of adjacent intersections.
No project has yet been approved, and comments collected on the draft EIR will be used to formulate a final EIR. According to a port statement, the EIR and a Port Master Plan Amendment — if the port’s master plan isn’t certified — will likely be brought before the Board of Port Commissioners in late 2026.
