BROADWAY, SAN DIEGO

SAN DIEGO

SAN DIEGO (St. James) was founded by Alonzo Erastus Horton in
1867. Its location is sanitary and exceptionally attractive, admirably adapted
for ocean commerce, and hundreds of charming homes fill up block after
block, the commanding positions being occupied by stately residences, whose
view takes in the ocean, bay, and in the distance, toward the south, may be
seen the mountains of Old Mexico.

It has substantial and attractive business buildings, up-to-date stores,
hotels and restaurants, fine opera houses and theatres, fine church edifices of
various denominations, and an excellent public school system. Secret and
benevolent societies have their lodge rooms, and some of the societies own
the magnificent structures in which they meet. Notably among these are the
Masonic, Elks and Knights of Pythias buildings, which are conceded to be
among the finest in the country. Three daily papers—one morning (The
Union) and two evening (The Tribune and The Sun), several weekly and
monthly publications afford a general news service that is complete and
reliable.
