BARRIO LOGAN | CHULA VISTA | CITY HEIGHTS | LA MESA | NATIONAL CITY | SAN MARCOS | SOUTHEASTERN SAN DIEGO
With a name that means pretty view, Chula Vista is situated halfway between San Diego and Tijuana. And as a featured neighborhood in Open House San Diego, it’s the place to be right now. What started as a few orchards and 5,000 peeps has blossomed to a city of 275,000. So when the city decided to build an additional library in the southern part of the city, it proved to be much needed. The library’s design by world-renowned Mexican architect Ricardo Legorreta only added to its allure for the Latino community. See its’ beauty up close during a virtual tour as part of OH! San Diego.
Chula Vista is growing fast, and Open House will showcase a new urban village with design elements that harken back to the neighborhoods of the past. OH San Diego will also include a look at what’s to come for this Southbay city with a sneak peek at plans for the Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan. The first development to be constructed as part of the Master Plan, the Costa Vista RV Resort, will be opening soon and OH visitors will get the first look.

MEET OUR NEIGHBORHOOD SPONSORMillenia
There’s a new urban village in Chula Vista, and it’s bringing more density and walkability to the suburbs. Millenia, by Meridian Development, covers 80 walkable city blocks and will include 6 parks. Millenia’s billing as a “pedestrian paradise” isn’t overstated, and you’ll see that during your OH! self-guided tour. Here’s a closer look at the new urban village from the Chula Vista sponsor — and how it’s bringing the city to the suburbs. Read more.
