San Diego International Airport (SAN) is in the middle of bustling downtown San Diego. So it’s no surprise that due to its location, many residential, office buildings, schools, and community use buildings are within a few miles of the airport.

These moments often call for a pause in conversation until the noise has passed…we locals call it the “Point Loma Pause.”
