Downtown is the hub of San Diego when it comes to nightlife, the arts, and dining. Within a compact 16-block radius, you’ll find the historic Gaslamp Quarter where Victorian-era buildings and ultra-modern skyscrapers intermingle to create a stunning cityscape. There are more than 100 of the city’s finest restaurants, pubs, nightclubs, and shops, in addition to residential lofts and modern live/work spaces. At night, the area comes alive with theater productions, live music, dancing, and craft cocktails (and of course, a San Diego staple – craft beer).
