Our neighborhood is eight blocks long (from Broadway to Harbor Drive) and a little more than two blocks wide (4th, 5th & 6th Avenues) for a total of 16 and one-half blocks. The area is best known for our stunning examples of Victorian Architecture and for being a fabulous entertainment destination. There are currently more than 100 diverse restaurants, nightclubs, lounges and live music venues. We have another 70 shops, boutiques, and personal service providers. There are more than 20 hotels directly adjacent to the neighborhood and we are directly across the street from the San Diego Convention Center and Petco Park, home to the San Diego Padres.
