The next edition of HillQuest, an Urban Guide to Hillcrest & beyond, is underway and projected to hit the streets (as usual) the end of June. For as little as $350 (that’s less than a dollar a day) businesses will receive a year’s worth of exposure throughout Uptown as well as a free listing of your service, restaurant or shop on Hillcrest’s most popular website, HillQuest.com.

As a bonus the colorful foldout maps show the Hillcrest Business Improvement District’s parking lots, community centers and self-guided neighborhood walks. All advertiser locations are also identified, listed and directed to the page in HQ8 where readers may find their ad. The flip side of the map shows hiking trails and museums in Balboa Park and businesses in the adjacent neighborhood of Bankers Hill.
