Rob Rossi isn’t just a developer - he’s a straight-up architect of identity on the Central Coast. In Part One of this two-part interview, Adam sits down in the Timbre LoBro Studios with the man behind some of San Luis Obispo’s most iconic buildings, boldest bets, and most emotional preservation projects.

From buying a trashed frat house out of college to rescuing original Disneyland train cars... from shaping downtown SLO to reviving the world’s first motel - this is a rare, real conversation with one of the most quietly influential people this area might have ever seen.

And you better believe we’re just getting started.

He talks about the $5,000 loan that launched it all, what it was like to bring four original Disneyland coaches to Santa Margarita Ranch, and what the real vision is for places like the Motel Inn and Avila Golf Resort, and a LOT more.
