![]() ![]() Happy
100th Birthday
to the Quince Street Bridge! This great pedestrian bridge spans Maple Canyon connecting Third and Fourth avenues at Quince Street. City engineer (and neighborhood resident) George d’Hemecourt designed the Bankers Hill treasure one hundred years ago at a cost of $805. The 1905 structure is one of the few, or possibly the only, wooden trestle bridge remaining in San Diego County. |

An
open letter from
the Pride Board of Directors: On behalf of San Diego Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender Pride, we feel it is our duty to inform the community of
the misleading relationship that we have witnessed firsthand between
the San Diego Reader and the
LGBT community...
