Little Portugal plans in play for Point Loma
A TREE DIES IN OCEAN BEACH SEE PAGE 5
BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON
You know of Little Italy in San Diego. But do you know about Point Loma’s Portuguese community? Now there's a move afoot to create a Little Portugal on the Peninsula. The United Portuguese SES Inc. (UPSES) is officially pursuing creation of a Little Portugal Community Benefit District (CBD) in the heart of the Peninsula along Avenida de Portugal. SEE PORTUGAL, Page 16
OB rethinking Newport Ave. BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON
A “visioning workshop” held recently for Newport Avenue in Ocean Beach has residents talking community priorities and problems. The workshop focused on examining the challenges and opportunities for Newport Avenue. Following a brief analysis of existing conditions, attendees submitted suggestions for improvement involving infrastructure, Atlas Tree Service crews cut down Esperanza, the nearly century-old Torrey pine (right) on Saratoga Avenue in Ocean Beach on Aug. 22 despite the pleas of neighbors.
