Supporting facility Owners in the planning, design, and construction process through education and information exchange.
About us
California Chapter of the Construction Owners Association of America (COAA-CA) About COAA: Helping facility/project Owners improve their delivery of construction & renovation projects and the experience of doing so. Founded in 1994, the Construction Owners Association of America (COAA) is a national organization of public and private entities who manage facilities development and capital improvement projects. Membership includes Owners representing a variety of sectors –including higher education institutions, governmental agencies, healthcare organizations, K-12 school districts, and others – and the product/service-providers who serve them. COAA and its members operate and believe in a mindset dubbed “The COAA Way.” It’s not an easy button, a formula, or a recipe for success. Instead, it’s an approach that recognizes the importance of people and the idea of a “good Owner” leading by example with fairness, integrity, a willingness to collaborate, transparency, good communication, humility, and a desire to continuously improve. COAA embraces a “generalist” approach to its educational offerings. Owners will find value in content that is applicable regardless of what’s being constructed, what its size or cost it, or what delivery method is employed. We focus on the entire “pie” of project management concerns from the Owner’s perspective, not a single slice. From formal courses offered through its unique Owner Training Institute and 3-day “COAA Connect” national conferences, to regional/state chapter workshops, webinars, town hall meetings, and a live members-only “eForum xChange” discussion held each month ... COAA members and customers can learn and connect in ways and that suit their needs, budget, and schedule.

On July 25, COAA CA and UC San Diego hosted an engaging guided tour led by Abigail Babaeian of the Ridge Walk North Living Learning Neighborhood, a project currently under construction. The tour began with a hardhat visit to this new neighborhood, highlighting the innovative design and construction efforts underway. Following this, we walked to the first Living Learning Neighborhood completed in 2021 for Sixth College. Matt Smith, for this development led the tour, sharing valuable insights into the project's completion and its impact on campus life. Our next stop was the Epstein Amphitheater, completed in 2023, located next to the UC San Diego Blue Line trolley. Kyle Schertzing, who was part of the original design team, guided this portion of the tour. The amphitheater enhances the connection between UC San Diego and the broader community, reflecting the university's dynamic energy and serving as a welcoming entrance to the campus. The Living Learning Neighborhood projects are integral to UC San Diego’s vision of providing a four-year housing guarantee for all students who wish to live on campus. Over the past 5-7 years, the university has made significant strides, adding 10,000 new beds either completed or currently under construction. The tour concluded at Ridge Walk Social, offering a chance for networking and a well-deserved break from the unusually hot San Diego weather. The event received excellent feedback and sparked interest in future events, underscoring the success of the day's activities.
