San Diego’s vibrant Barrio Logan is a treasure trove of art and culture.

Military Coastal Artistic Historic Trendy

Formerly San Diego’s waterfront warehouse district, Barrio Logan has emerged over the last few decades as a thriving cultural center for the city. Numerous local galleries and the popular Barrio Art Crawl have raised Barrio Logan’s profile as a hotspot for artistic talent in San Diego, which is also on display in the huge, iconic murals of Chicano Park. The north end of the neighborhood is practically across the street from the Gaslamp Quarter, giving folks easy access to the city’s nightlife and entertainment epicenter, and Balboa Park is only a few blocks away as well. The location on San Diego Bay puts Barrio Logan conveniently close to Naval Base San Diego and the other local military facilities, making it an excellent location for service members and civilian military employees.

Barrio Logan didn't just change within the environment but the vibe changed. The welcome smiles on Saturday nights in the Flea market, the mini stores open during the night and the delicious tacos in many places.

I believe the biggest problem plaguing our community is the growing homeless problem. The homeless encampments, the open drug/alcohol use, public urination and defecation, and increased crime rate are just some of the issues we deal with day in day out.
