Shopping mall on the site of the current Plaza. 1963.

Kockritz Stratford 1960. Looking west on south side of 15th. The arch goes into the photo gallery and Jimmy O’s is now next door. The “Cafe” sign is where Sbicca is today.

The Town Market 1965. The market was where Earth Song and La Boutique are today. The alley shown to the left (with the truck) is where the little park is today. There had been a market at that locatio since the Kockritz building was built in early 1927.

Camino del Mar & 9th Street - Today’s office building is now where the Texaco station was, and the 942 Camino del Mar project is beyond it at 10th Street.

St. James Catholic Church 1964. St. James then passed through several transformations including two restaurants, an arts school, and office space before being converted into the Del Mar Library in 1996.
