July 2

Marston House

Built 1905 by architect Irving Gill, this is one of several historic properties owned by the City of San Diego.
Unfortunately they do not keep up the properties, so this house is slowly decaying.

Oh no, that's such a shame - this is a beautiful house that deserves some TLC

I second Nestor's comment ~V~

A very nice property and well built in those day probably full dimension lumber used.
Maybe San Diego will have a change of heart if people make mention of it as you did .
A excellent photograph all in the frame nice and sharp.

Lovely old house. Shame about the neglect. Do you not have an organisation like out National Trust which looks after old buildings?

Agree with Christine. If the goal is historical preservation, then do it.

quite the large spread, and looks still useful too...seems they mow the lawns at least, perhaps the easiest level of maintenance..

What a waste to let this go down hill. You photo could be a brokers advertisement, it look so inviting. "V"

It is a beautiful house, and beautifully photographed. It is very sad that these places are not maintained, what is the point of protecting them if they are left to decay! V

Nice capture. The grounds look pretty well kept. What a shame.
