San Diego HIGH Rise
Condos - Great Food in
Little Italy
Little Italy in the Past
The northern shore of San
Diego Bay had been the home
of Italian and Portuguese
fishermen during the 20th
century.
These people sailed in San
Diego Bay to fish for tuna
and other commercial
fishes.
As more and more Italians
settle in this part of
Downtown San Diego, the
neighborhood has been
known to be as ‘Little Italy.’
A major decline in the tuna
industry occurred in the
early years and this paved
way to the construction of
Interstate 5.
Since then, the place
endured depreciation for
decades and the once
developed and industrialized
community was disrupted.
However, in the early
1990’s the Centre City
Development Corporation
has been approached by
the local residents
and merchants to team up
with them in preserving
the cultural dynamic and
restoring the commerce in
the neighborhood.
In the year 2000, the
development began and the
once disrupted community
has been a breeding place for
everyone especially the food
lovers.
Little Italy Today
From the basic necessities
to the components of an
optimum San Diego living,
Little Italy offers more than
enough.
Its natural sloping
landscape allows anyone
to capture the best view of
the bay.
The community has been
filled with commercial and
residential buildings too.
From lofts to
condominiums,
apartments and small
homes,
one could surely find a
place to reside in this part
of Downtown San Diego.
Visitors love
to come in
Little Italy
during
Saturday.
It is during this day where
the Mercato Farmer’s
Market is booming with
fresh produces, blooms,
great foods and gift items.
Mix these displays with a
live music and great view
of the bay,
anyone’s day would surely
be complete.
To further boost the
enjoyment,
the Amici Park which is
lined with cypress features
a bocce ball court
and a wide open space
perfect for a fun weekend
or holiday picnic for
anyone.
