Shoulda been torn down a long time ago.
Looks hideous, creepy and decaying.
But with foreigners like “Bruce” Delgado running the show, the fact that it looks like a bombed out village in the Third World was no problem for what, two decades?
Now he gets religion.
Just turn it all over to private enterprise, they’ll turn it into East Garrison and more basinesses like Joby will locate at the airport industrial area.
But we know the only Green Party Mayor in California would rather barf then do that.
My understanding is the the only thing keeping all that beautiful beach front property from being turned into ‘ugly boxes’ (Eagles Hotel CA reference), is the fact that much of it has environmental cleanup from use as shooting or artillery ranges that still needs to be done. I think it’s better undeveloped personally. But those old barracks are an eyesore.

There is a relatively new couple in our neighborhood, and his job is doing what you cited and I posted above re rehabbing or whatever to convert old military bases into current and usable commercial properties, not rehabbed military barracks.
He has convinced his company that he can live anywhere and there are a lot of former bases in California waiting to be rehabbed.
