  • Loiterers, crime at Adams rec center park

  • “Two months ago, while I was walking my two dogs by the Adams Recreation Center park,” Frank said. “A black homeless [looking] guy flicked his cigarette on the street. He [then] said, ‘What you lookin’ at?’ then he swung at me with a beer bottle.” Frank said he pushed him away and “he fell on his ass.” He then hurried his dogs home to safety — by Wilson Avenue.

  • Purchased by William Randolph Hearst and dismantled in 1926, the Red Fox in Surrey was shipped to California for the mansion Hearst was building in Santa Monica for his mistress.
  • Forced out but not outfoxed

  • One of the oldest restaurants in San Diego, going back to the 1950s, is The Red Fox Steakhouse and Piano Bar on El Cajon Boulevard in the historic Lafayette Hotel. It’s an old-school steakhouse, and in fact had its origin in an Olde English steakhouse and pub outside London from centuries ago.According to the restaurant’s website, “The Red Fox Room was an old inn in Surrey, England and dates from around 1560."

  • Rendering of BLVD project
  • El Cajon Blvd. revamp ramps up

  • A couple of years ago the rundown section of El Cajon Boulevard in University Heights began a slow journey to rejuvenation. Construction crews have recently picked up the pace. The largest residential project in the immediate area is BLVD, a mixed-use development at 2030 El Cajon Boulevard (at Florida Street).

  • Hyping University Heights

  • A few pitches for University Heights promotion... The business district runs between signs ("The Boulevard" to "Normal Heights"), about the last third of Park and the beginning of Adams:
  • "Let's Go to Breakfast!" or "Brunch: It's Not Just Sunday Anymore..." (Cafe on Park, Gulf Coast Grill, Parkhouse Eatery, Adams Avenue Grill, Antique Row Cafe, am I missing anybody?)
