San Diego Harbor Front • 1983


Six SH-3 "Sea King" helicopters from Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron HS-12 on North Island fly past an under-construction San Diego Convention Center in 1983.  Yes, there really ARE six helicopters in the above photo.  I believe the grassy area in the foreground is now the San Diego Symphony's Rady Shell.




This stunning K. C. Alfred aerial appeared on the front page of the April 2, 2024 San Diego Union.  You can see the white Rady Shell amphitheater at the bottom middle -- and a whole lot more.
