Downtown San Diego circa 1925


A gorgeous shot looking north from 5th Avenue and E Street around -- I'm guessing -- 1925.  The snippet below, from the 1927 City Directory, contains a number of familiar names:  Baranov Jewelers was around for years, as was Boldrick Shoes.  I suspect Cleators Shoes gave us City Councilman Bill Cleator.  I wonder if Whitney's 5, 10 & 25¢ store became Woolworths.
