not much of a women's center anymore. very industrial area, which i like. surprised citymark is…read moresupposed to be building high end residences here across from walmart and the automotive shop. very different design for citymark as well - when i purchased one of their condos (m2i) there was a lot of architectural talk about matching the facade to the surrounding neighborhood - didn't work out that way, but i liked the exposed structural materials at that location. in the end - a condo at this location cannot be worth more than $100k or $200 a square foot for 600sf. still crazy expensive compared to what the land was sold for at around $160k for the whole lot then resold recently at $2.1 million supposedly. better question - how could a location like this be worth anything at all when there are hundreds of condos proposed for construction in la mesa on their gis website? be careful starting a business that requires foot traffic here, when m2i first started the vast majority of the businesses in that area went belly up within a few years and that was in a high traffic city location - almost no-one walks around this area. the entitled design certainly is not industrial enough for the neighborhood - makes me super sad to read about the la mesa women's club at the library while also spending $320k on a unit at m2i then learning about what they are building here / how the developer/woman's group is suing the church next door. i am a bit ashamed to have paid for one of these units from citymark in the past - m2i 506 at 1050 island ave. that was me. also of note - citymark has a habit of installing very limited finished with the expectation that owners finish the interior of the units. that can work, but you should pay appropriately. personally - i expect more from a woman's club. primarily: consideration for the longevity of the city and the architectural design which they have strong control over at this location. they definitely sold out here while beating up on the church they grew up alongside. not cool - that says something about its current members. when you have property and an opportunity to build something that develops the city you are supposed to be shepherding, but you choose to sell out like this - there's something very wrong or entirely self centered going on. this proposed citymark design also shows that the women's club does not care about fabrication or industry whatsoever (which this area is rife with), just high end residential which is not going to help the la mesa tax base. expect a glut of units in la mesa at rock bottom prices with the intent of having you drive to work on a regular basis instead of working locally (there are already huge vacancies.) also expect higher prices in this area because of fewer low dollar residences.

For several years, my husband's company had their annual award banquet there. It would always start out before sunset so that we had great views. Each side of the room offers a view of downtown and beyond. Then they would have a very professional staff passing appetizers and serving cocktails, and then a fancy dinner. Another time, my husband surprised me with a show at Symphony Hall downstairs, that included drinks and desserts at the University Club upstairs. It was beautiful and indulgent. More recently, a friend had given us tickets to Sunset Sips, a monthly themed-tasting. It was Spanish-themed when we went. They had vendors set up with various Spanish wines and liquors. They even included a couple of small appetizers to set off the them. A little over a week ago, a friend invited me to a San Diego Magazine party. It was a bit less "all inclusive" as the first cocktail was included, but after that it was a cash bar. They had some passed appetizers and a cold appetizer buffet. It was beautiful as always, had a DJ and some cute games, as well as a raffle. We were able to take a few photos before sunset. I cannot comment on the University Club membership, or any of the regular dining, as I have always come for a special event in the private event room. I hope I get invited back there soon!

I researched online and their membership is way down because downtown San Diego is dead. There are way better options if you're looking for a lively place to conduct business and network. Also, if you are a person of color, you most likely work here, NOT a member. This is still clearly mostly a club for old, white, powerful men. As a diverse woman of color, I did not feel welcome. In fact, I was DISINVITED to join. In writing. Nice views but is it worth the $750 initiation fee and monthly dues of $260 and up? (It is not. Lol. I found much better alternatives at a much lower price point without a one-year contract commitment.)
