In San Diego, as in any city, the only true constant is change.
Trucks load and unload. Buildings fall and rise. Cars turn corners. People from every walk of life funnel through crosswalks. Lives intersect.
We travel down countless paths to futures unknown.
To curious eyes, the city reveals infinite complexity. And infinite mystery.
I took most of these photographs very recently.
In East Village, a new high-rise is being built above the old façade of the Farkas Store Fixtures building. A 2020 Carly Ealey mural still smiles.People walking very different paths cross the same street.Tearing down to build up.Millions of Dole bananas show up on schedule at the Tenth Avenue Marine Terminal. Some changes are predictable.Other changes aren’t quite so predictable. San Diego Padres make the Major League Baseball Playoffs in 2022!Old friends. New friends. Soon to be friends. TwitchCon at the San Diego Convention Center.I was told another track is coming by the Green Line platform at the 12th and Imperial trolley station.Heading toward the border. A life in progress.Pesos, Euros, Dollars and a bicycle. Where to?What change is coming to this corner of the Plaza de Panama in Balboa Park?

Change is inevitable, Richard. I do like it when they repurpose historic buildings instead of tearing them down, however. –Curt
