Three months after being put on sale by the Enea family, Lighthouse Cinema and Event Center in downtown Pacific Grove has a new, hopeful owner, a P.G. dentist, a Seaside resident and property owner, Ayman Adeeb, who has been investing in the community through real estate developments.

Preserving Pacific Grove’s architectural identity is Adeeb’s priority, he says. “I love the smell of the place,” he continues enthusiastically. “It smells like history. We will have ice cream, draft beer and school talent shows. I want Lighthouse Cinema to feel like home.”

Usually when someone buys a 600 square foot cottage and adds 3,000 square feet to it with nothing left of the original but the threshold it gets awarded with a historical building sign.

So Doctor buys building, offers to restore it and get waivers on parking spaces required. City discovers building is beyond repair and orders it torn down and parking waivers voided. City Director wants Doctor to make more low income dwellings in new plan. Doc is in it for the money, not social issues.

Doctor should be able to replicate the old building and keep the parking waiver.

“Once a historic building is demolished, it loses its historicity,” explained Pacific Grove’s Community and Development Director Mark Brodeur. That in turn changes certain parameters that accompany such a project. In this case those parameters involve parking.
“I informed the new owner that once the demolition is in place his plans as previously approved are no longer going to work because I don’t have the flexibility to allow five parking spaces off site,” explained Brodeur. Instead, Adeeb would have to change the project to accommodate eight parking spaces on site.
