What does the drawing set include?

We start with your program: number of stalls, a foaling stall if you breed, wash rack, tack room, feed room, hay storage and any apartment or office. The site plan places the barn, paddocks, arena, drive and turnaround so trucks and trailers can move. The barn floor plan sets stall sizes, aisle width and door locations for daily chores, and a foaling stall gets the larger size and the sightline from the office or apartment. Elevations and a section show roof, ventilation and overhangs for the permit and contractor pricing.

Midway Rising is San Diego's largest affordable housing bet in state history, and it is still working through approval. San Diego's most consequential active development proposal is Midway Rising, a plan to transform roughly 49 to 50 acres around the aging Sports Arena in the Midway District into a mixed-use neighborhood anchored by more than 4,000 housing units, including 2,000 affordable apartments reserved for households earning 80 percent of area median income or below, described as the largest affordable housing development in California history if it proceeds as proposed. The plan also includes a new 16,000-seat arena and retail space, built as an entirely new walkable neighborhood rather than an incremental addition to the existing Sports Arena site. The project's timeline runs through 2026 rather than sitting complete.

Your local building department sets the final submittal checklist. We draft to the sheet content reviewers ask for and revise if the reviewer issues comments on the drawings we produced.

How does the drafting work?

  1. You send your program, site sketch and any photos of barns you like.
  2. We confirm stall count, sizes and building placement.
  3. We draft site plan, barn plan, elevations and section.
  4. You review; we apply revisions.
  5. Final DWG and PDF set.

What do you need to send us?

  • Program: stalls, foaling stall, tack, feed, hay, apartment
  • Site sketch or survey of the property
  • Photos of barns or ranch buildings you like

If you are not sure what you have is enough, send it anyway. We review it the same business day and tell you exactly what is missing, if anything.

How fast is it and what does it cost?

Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from complete information, and a 48-hour rush is available on smaller scopes. Every project gets a fixed quote before drafting starts, based on the number of sheets, the size of the building and how much existing conditions work is needed. There are no hourly surprises: revisions on the drawings we produced are included until the set is ready to submit.

How are the files delivered?

You receive native DWG files on named layers (walls, doors and windows, dimensions, text, existing and new work kept apart), a plotted PDF set at the correct sheet size and scale, and a short sheet index. Your engineer, contractor or permit expediter can open the files without cleanup, add their own sheets and keep working on the same base drawings.
