About Logan Heights
Logan Heights is a neighborhood in central San Diego, California. In
1871, Congressman John A. Logan wrote legislation to provide federal
land grants and subsidies for a transcontinental railroad ending in San
Diego. A street laid in 1881 was named Logan Heights after him, and the
name came to be applied to the general area. Plans for a railroad never
successfully materialized, and the area was predominantly residential by
the turn of the century, becoming one of San Diego's oldest communities.
Its transformation began in 1910 with the influx of refugees of the
Mexican Revolution, who soon became the majority ethnic group. For this
reason, residents and non-residents alike now call the neighborhood
Barrio Logan, though officially it remains Logan Heights.
Barrio Logan is known to historians, art connoisseurs, and Chicanos as the home of Chicano Park, the site of a land takeover and cultural renaissance. Because of this activity, which began with the Chicano Movement and continues today, Barrio Logan claims numerous famous artists and activists as its own.
