The Grand Stairway
1 Fifth Avenue, San Diego, CA
A massive marvel of civil engineering and architectural landmark, The Grand Stairway is an extension of Fifth Avenue (for pedestrian use only) that bridges the gap from Harbor Drive to the South Embarcadero providing access to the Coronado Ferry Terminal at Fifth Avenue Landing.
The public right-of-way provides coastal access to San Diego Bay from the
Gaslamp Quarter through the Convention Center to the South Embarcadero.
