Now with the help of the city of San Diego, Civic San Diego, the Quartyard Management team and their undying fans, RAD LAB plans to bring the space back into operation in early 2018.<\/p>\n

The spot became a model for other cities to take advantage of rundown, blighted or abandoned urban lots and creating a \u201cpop-up\u201d community centerpiece.<\/p>\n
