Found San Diego
This French Mansard roofed house is one of only three or four that still exist in San Diego. The beautiful Victorian house was located on the northwest corner of 7th and A Streets on what we now call Cortez Hill.
Built in 1887 this house was shown in the foreground of many of the historic "Birdseye" view photos of downtown San Diego. It was moved in 1910 to 1930 30th Street in South Park, where it is now being restored by its owner.
