That project-site fell through, and the group eventually installed a smaller brewpub concept similar to the original Urge in Oceanside. It has been a hit since its debut late last year, but even so, ownership never ditched that bowling-alley concept. In fact, even in the midst of the busiest span of their business&#8217; lifespan, they managed to secure a space in which to make that multi-faceted project happen. As a result, <strong>Urge Common House <\/strong>is under construction and set to become a reality by March of 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The original project was slated for Vista, but Urge Common House will be located at <strong>255 Redel Road <\/strong>in the neighboring municipality of San Marcos. But that\u2019s about the only big change in the project. The original site was 22,000-square-feet, and the new spot, located across the street from the north end of California State University, San Marcos, is 21,000-square-feet. Urge\u2019s ownership team was contacted by a developer who read about the original \u201cUrge: Craft Alley\u201d project and found merit in it. Urge Common House will be part of an all-in-one live-and-play development called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.northcity.co\/\"><strong>North City<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14842\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14842\" style=\"width: 639px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archives.csusm.edu\/westcoastersd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/urgecommonhouse_pano.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14842\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archives.csusm.edu\/westcoastersd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/urgecommonhouse_pano.jpg?resize=639%2C188&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A peek inside the Urge Common House construction-site\" width=\"639\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archives.csusm.edu\/westcoastersd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/urgecommonhouse_pano.jpg?resize=300%2C88&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archives.csusm.edu\/westcoastersd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/urgecommonhouse_pano.jpg?resize=768%2C226&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archives.csusm.edu\/westcoastersd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/urgecommonhouse_pano.jpg?resize=1024%2C301&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archives.csusm.edu\/westcoastersd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/urgecommonhouse_pano.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archives.csusm.edu\/westcoastersd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/urgecommonhouse_pano.jpg?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14842\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A peek inside the Urge Common House construction-site<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The restaurant component of Urge Common House will seat 450 and include three bars.
