Pottery Canyon Kiln
This wood-burning kiln, on a private lot next to Pottery Canyon Natural Park in La Jolla, is a fragile circular adobe structure. Associated with Cornelio Rodriguez, who arrived in La Jolla from Guadalajara, Mexico in 1928 and produced pottery in the San Diego area. This historic kiln was designated in 1976 and remained in operation through the 1980s, making it the oldest operating kiln in San Diego and potentially all of Southern California. While the kiln is dangerously deteriorated, City of San Diego staff navigate a complex situation with the property owner. SOHO consults with and supports the staff who watch over and aim to preserve this important cultural site. (Scroll to view more photos) |
