Downtown
Downtown San Diego encompasses eight different neighborhoods: Gaslamp, East Village, Columbia, Marina, Cortez, Little Italy, Horton Plaza, and Core. These neighborhoods are the center of our business, arts, and entertainment communities. Twenty years of redevelopment transformed Downtown into a vibrant and exciting place to live, work and play.
