It was a great day for Encinitas on October 28 when we celebrated the symbolic ground breaking for the renovation of the Pacific View Art Center. The center is due to open to the public in 2024. The renovation contract went to Conan Construction Inc. for $4.56 million and a 20 percent contingency fund. Plus $800,00 will go to Kleinfelder Construction Services to manage and inspect the construction project. Photos: Patricia Frischer
