Navy will consider 'Grand Central Station' in redevelopment of Point Loma base

The Navy is making room for the possibility of a much-talked-about transit center, one that local leaders have dubbed "San Diego Grand Central Station," at the 70-acre base that overlooks Interstate 5 in Point Loma .

The Department of the Navy, Commander Navy Region Southwest and the San Diego Association of Governments announced on July 10 that they had entered into a contract, or memorandum of understanding, that identifies a mutual interest in using the oft-called SPAWAR site for a future transportation hub that connects all rail types and provides access to San Diego International Airport.
