Ocean Beach Antique District
4800-4900 blocks of Newport Ave., (619) 233-9020.
A large concentration of shops in this two-block area specializes in American antiques, glassware, jewelry, and collectibles. Parking is plentiful and free, yet it is very difficult to find a space because this area is also close to the beach.

I like the free parking spots, even if it's quite a challenge to find one.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun window shopping place. Unfortunately, as a downsized empty nester, I only permit myself to buy refrigerator magnets on our travels.
ReplyDeleteMy downsizing motto is something in, something out--preferably two somethings!
