Altre informazioni:
Old Town is a neighborhood of San Diego, California. It contains 230 acres (93 ha) and is bounded by Interstate 8 on the north, Interstate 5 on the west, Mission Hills on the east and Bankers Hill on the south. It is the oldest settled area in San Diego and is the site of the first European settlement in present-day California. It contains Old Town San Diego State Historic Park and Presidio Park, both of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Cosmopolitan Hotel & Restaurant is located on the corner of Calhoun and Mason streets in Old Town. Originally constructed as the home of San Diego pioneer and early settler Juan Bandini between 1827 and 1829, the Cosmo is one of the most significant buildings in California with a history spanning more than 175 years. It was used first as a home for Bandini’s family and later adapted and converted into a hotel, apartment building, olive factory, and restaurant. The building is not only a rarity because of its long history, but it has been associated with some of California’s most important people and events, and its distinctive architectural character helps tell the story of the birthplace of California. The three-year, multimillion-dollar restoration of Old Town San Diego’s Cosmopolitan Hotel & Restaurant has been completed in June 2010.
