Hotel San Diego (1914)

Most Endangered 2005 John D. Spreckels built the Hotel San Diego, which was one of several buildings his family interests constructed on Broadway such as the Spreckels Theatre and the old Union-Tribune Building. In 1983, the Hotel San Diego is listed as a Historical Site in San Diego and was deemed eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The six-story hotel is significant not only for its architecture and size but also as a representative piece of the city's layered urban fabric. A new federal courthouse is planned for the site and it appears only a lack of funding continues to save the hotel. For a city with so few important buildings left along Broadway the loss of this building would be yet another to mourn.
