"In 2008 the California Theatre was probably in better shape than the Balboa Theatre had been at the time it got restored. Even now, it can certainly also be saved. It just takes someone who loves San Diego more than the almighty buck. But in reality, a developer can do both. Make his buck and save our heritage at the same time. Being heroic doesn't mean sacrificing profit." (2008, Dan Soderberg)
