We missed this yesterday, but still think you should know: The company that owns Brightwater — the company that wanted to build 300-something homes on Huntington Beach wetland — announced it was filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Wednesday.

Now, California Coastal Communities Inc. faces a $182 million debt. They're looking to restructure in court.
