This is wonderful. It's a major build next to Interstate 57. The Bullet Train will be ready in 2030 timeframe. The Honda Center will be completely upgraded. Additional development to adjacent lots will be announced in the future and could total $10B. Santa Ana International Airport may triple it's width and double its length to accommodate heavy overseas jumbo airliners.

There will not be a bullet train in 2030 if ever.

That part of Orange County is one of the most overdeveloped and intensely dense places in the country. It's 100% concrete, traffic is terrible, some not great neighborhoods, why on earth would you want it to be more heavily developed? The area around the ball parks and Disney is one of my most unfavorite places in all of SoCal.
I lived on the fringe of Irvine back in the mid 1980s. There were still orange groves and other crop fields, it was easy to get to San Diego and up into LA, but the beauty was that Orange County was NOT anything like LA proper. Other than the reactionary old right wing nuts, Orange County, outside of Santa Ana, was one of the best places in the country for weather and quality of life. Now, it's outrageously rich Newport Beach and ridiculously expensive Irvine and a lot of hot concrete and traffic.
Now, you drive down the 405 or the 5 from LA and it's just the same concrete nightmare as LA until you get way down toward Mission Viejo.
No thanks.
OC used to be Republican. White Flight sent millions to Dago I5, I15 and Riverside I215 corridor.
Now OC wants two NCAA Division I Football teams of their own. UC Irvine and CSU Fullerton. Wonder how that will fare.
We need someone like that who cares about sports in Eugene. Congratulations to our mentors in Anaheim. You guys are the boss.
$13 Billion! FACK!!!! It's the Giga-DUCKS damn it!
Anaheim, California Giga-DUCKS.
Eugene, Oregon has the Oregon Cheap-DUCKS.
OC needs an NFL Franchise. The upcoming year-around NFL may have a one 17 week season plus two and 12 week double seasons.
BFD. Comicon is at the San Diego CC every March. This year it's July 22-26.
Not the Oregon Ducks, apparently
The Ducks never get any respect.
I hope they add another MLS, NBA, and NFL team in Anaheim/OC.
