San Diego's diverse Linda Vista neighborhood has a unique history, having been built as a federal wartime project. In the first phase in 1941, 3000 homes were built in 259 days. Much of the original construction remains. This tour visits the major civic sites in the core area and passes through parts of the 1941 residential development.

The tour and site entries were developed by the Linda Vista Branch Library, part of San Diego Public Library, and the Linda Vista Town Council.
