David Evans, better known by his stage name The Edge, has plans to develop mountaintop property in Malibu, much to the concern of some of his neighbors. The erstwhile U2 guitarist plans to build five mountaintop mansions with amazing ocean views, one for him to reside in, one of which would be a home for real estate investor Derek Quinlan, and three that would be place on the market in the hopes of turning a tidy profit. Other residents of the area are concerned both about the noise of the construction and the impact on the cliff side and the surrounding environment. The area that has been chosen for the site of these residences requires a number of difficult engineering feats in order for construction to proceed as planned. Evans has stated that he loves the Malibu area and plans to be environmentally responsible during construction. The California Coastal Commission plans to do a study this summer.
