The Del’s centerpiece — the red turreted building that houses 367 rooms — will be the final phase of the historic resort’s ambitious, years-long renovation.
The neighborhood spans nine blocks along Imperial Avenue — from 61st to 69 streets — and hopes to become a unifying hub for the Black experience in San Diego.
The overhaul is the largest capital improvement to the aquarium since it was built in 1992; it will be closed from Monday, Sept. 30 to Thursday, Oct. 3 so crews can begin renovations.
