Just ten years ago, San Diego's downtown was bordering on dilapidation. But recent developments have made it one of the most dynamic city centers on the West Coast, bringing in a brand new ballpark for the San Diego Padres, creating a unique shopping experience with the architectural award-winning Horton Plaza and expanding the city's cultural opportunities.
Following in the path of all this renovation is a real estate phenomenon. The skyline is changing as luxury apartment buildings and condominiums are built up along the waterfront, drawing people into what used to be a neighborhood to avoid. Downtown San Diego is in the midst of a renaissance.
Downtown is the center of San Diego's action and culture. The Civic Theater and the Spreckles Theater are the two major performing arts venues in the city; the San Diego Children's Theater is also here. The Museum of Contemporary Art complements the museums clustered in nearby Balboa Park, and Petco Park draws in sports enthusiasts and proud San Diegans to cheer on the Padres.
In May 2008, the average home sales price for a single family home or condo in downtown San Diego was $579,666. While this data is collected from the MLS and deemed reliable, it is not guaranteed.
