San Diego Housing
Commission
The Sandford Hotel was designed by architect Henry Lord Gay and constructed in 1914 in anticipation of tourists coming to San Diego for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition. In addition to seismic, ADA, and energy efficient upgrades, rehabilitation included restoring the original exterior color scheme, historic arched wood windows, festoon lighting, and the wood storefront. Interior work included the replication of missing decorative paint and stencils in the main lobby. Period-style light fixtures light the public areas and refurbished historic furniture is back in use.
