  • About Us

    The Gaslamp Quarter Historical Foundation is dedicated to fostering the cultural, historical and architectural heritage of the Gaslamp Quarter, a 16 ½-block area designated as a National Historic District. Through exhibits, tours, festivals and educational programs for children and adults, the Foundation opens a window to the past by depicting the historical development of downtown San Diego.

    The Foundation operates the oldest standing residence in the Gaslamp Quarter, the Gaslamp Museum at the Davis-Horton House, a repository of artifacts, photographs and archives that we seek to preserve for residents and visitors from throughout the world. Recognized as the “Curator of the Gaslamp,” the Foundation strives to maintain the integrity of the historic district and preserve its history and architecture.
