The life-size image of a well turned-out, urban professional depicted in 'That a Way' appears to recognize The Sofia Hotel as the fashionable, boutique-inspired hotel featured in San Diego Magazine’s April 2007 issue that he holds. Because it will capture the public’s attention on Broadway for generations to come, the hotel and magazine chose to dedicate its presence to the success of downtown redevelopment. Recently the principals of both the magazine and hotel joined the families and friends of Governor Pete Wilson, Ernie Hahn and former CCDC executive Jerry Trimble acknowledging them as the original visionaries and driving force behind the city’s rebirth.
