Bay Terraces (former South Bay Terraces)

Bay Terraces is a neighborhood that was annexed by the City of San Diego. In 1976 Penasquitos Inc. led by Samuel J. Kahn, submitted revisions to the initial development plan for adjustments to housing, open space and circulation resulting in the urbanization of this community. This conversion of previously unused tracts of land to housing in the urban core resulted in military personnel, Filipino immigrants with military ties and low-income families being able to secure loans and buy new homes in the heart of San Diego.
