    I grew up in Allied Gardens in the 70's - 80's. I had the perfect childhood there. My dad still lives there. I moved to the mountains (Julian). But I've always had the best memories from my Allied Gardens days.

    This video is a blast from the past when I lived in San Diego in the mid-Seventies. Kensington was my favorite neighborhood with its' one block long CBD and Spanish style houses on English named streets.

    Miss driving to the top of Cowles Mountain. Was called Black Mountain. Had a lot of deer up there back when I was a kid. Our house in 63 cost 25k across the steet from Gage Elementary School. Huge two story house on Hudson. I moved to Seattle in 75 and bought a beautiful place on Puget Sound. Deer hunting in back yard, Crabbing and Salmon fishing across the street for a little over 100k a few years ago. Olalla Cove. 5 acre minimum property now to build on . Never could afford to move back home to SD. Would have to work every day to live down there.

      Dan, can you make a video on Del Cerro & Allied Gardens? We’re looking for mid-century homes and I think you can only find them (Krisel tracts)in Del Cerro & Allied Gardens? Are there other areas in San Diego that would have Krisel homes or any other mid-century homes?

I tried to buy in the area but the properties available had tiny lots and needed a lot of work. I ended up buying a 1929 California Bungalow in Skyline Hills. It was already remodeled and sat on a 7,580 sqft lot. Paid $412K in 2019.

    If u can visualize sd 100 years ago, you should also be able to visualize sd in another 100 years. It took a lot of development to get to where we are today. Hindsight shows us certain errors that could have been avoided. Where will we put another million people? The city heights could be bulldozed and rebuilt with 20 to 25 storey bldgs with grey water collection. Just what do you think this city should look like in another hundred years?

    • @DanPBestLifeSD
      @DanPBestLifeSD  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think we will see higher density downtown, the neighborhoods surrounding downtown, and certain coastal communities (although the coastal communities will admittedly be the most challenging). And then of course we will build out further into the outskirts of Ramona, Valley Center, Fallbrook, Escondido, and Chula Vista

    Birdrock is lame not a good place to live and ugly beach. Overpriced closet. Bird rock coffee is not good.
    Hillcrest is awful... Unless you are gay. Overpriced sewer.
    San Elijo is nice.
    Mission Hills is nice.
