The History of Sunset Cliffs, San Diego
Nestled along the unmatched coastline of the Pacific Ocean, the Golden State radiates as both an ideal summer escape or primary home base with its world-famous beaches, rugged cliffs, and pristine national parks.
And Sunset Cliffs is no exception, carrying with it a rich history that adds depth to its allure for travelers and home buyers alike. Its namesake cliffs have witnessed the passage of time and the many people who have been inspired by their beauty—and are considered sacred by the indigenous peoples who have long resided on the land. Later, Albert Spalding developed the Linear Section, hiring a Japanese architect to design and create what would become known as Sunset Cliffs Park.
Over the years, Sunset Cliffs has been a haven for artists, writers, and dreamers who sought inspiration in its breathtaking vistas and sturdy profile.
