Summary In a poorer section of San Diego, a site was set aside for a development that would help a local rebirth. But the lot "sits vacant, surrounded by a fence, filled with trash." A KGTV investigation finds that while the city continues to pay an $8 million loan from Housing and Urban Development for the development of the area, nothing has happened on the property. The land continues to increase in value, and the developer continues to do nothing.
