I used to live in San Diego in the 80s. Now I live here again. It's hard to remember how great it was, but thanks for these videos.

@Brian Allen well, it's even worse now.

I don’t go there much anymore. San Diego in general is a construction zone rapidly turning into a traffic jam and I hate that multiple nice communities have been ruined by greedy politicians and real estate cartels.

I remember going to the O.B. People's CO-OP in 1985, the original building, it was so funky, it felt like a barn inside, and total hippie vibes. I loved it
