Area is very derelict and dirty. Many buildings are vacant and for lease giving the area a very shoddy feel. Audio from operator was repetitive and directions unclear as many streets had no street signs.
Discover the historic Gaslamp Quarter, explore the cultural landmarks, and the stories of the people who shaped San Diego's history. Go at your own pace, anytime. The tour is location aware and plays as you walk. It's theatrically created to tell the story and bring the area to life.
