Central Downtown
GASLAMP QUARTER
San Diego began here in the 1870s. Today, it’s the hottest restaurant and nightlife section in town. This historic neighborhood has several mixed-use, low-slung sites offering over 400 condos and apartments, as well as a new Hard Rock Hotel at the ceremonial Fifth Avenue entrance to the city hub.
HORTON PLAZA
This 15-block area is where redevelopment began two decades ago. There are limited condos and apartments available at the center of the stunning shopping center and all its activity.
LITTLE ITALY
Comparable to Mulberry Street in NYC or North Beach in San Francisco, this neighborhood originally was home to our tuna fishing industry and its workers. Today, revitalized India Street and its quaint Italian restaurants are surrounded by a dozen new, small-unit condos, town houses and apartment buildings. After an espresso, walk two blocks
Little Italy, Downtown
to the bay and you’re staring at the world-famous 140 year-old clipper ship Star of India.
MARINA
Perhaps Downtown’s most beautiful and desirable neighborhood, the Marina, is close to San Diego Bay, the Embarcadero, several waterfront hotels, the boardwalk, Seaport Village, and the Convention Center. Here you’ll find luxury high-rise
Petco Park, Downtown
and mid-rise condos. The North Embarcadero Visionary Plan, which will include a grand entrance along Broadway, a 1.2 mile boardwalk along the waterfront, a revitalization of the Broadway Pier, and a Park- to-Bay linkage, will transform our “front porch” into a jewel of mixed- use coastal living by 2020.
