The San Diego City Council is scheduled to vote Monday on a plan that would transform Horton Plaza into a tech hub.
The 275-million dollar plan from Stockdale Capital Partners would change the mall into a high-tech office complex. The developer said the new Campus at Horton would create four-thousand high-paying tech jobs spread throughout 700-thousand square feet of office space.

The goal is to keep some of the current stores and maybe some new ones as part of the new development. If the City Council approves the proposal, the developer hopes to complete the first phase by late 2020.
When Horton Plaza opened in 1985, it was the first sign of rebirth in downtown San Diego. Over the last few years, however, more and more retailers have left.
