Here in SD: Golden Hill Fountain Grotto

🎉 Congrats to Cory B., who was one of a handful of readers who correctly identified the Golden Hill Fountain Grotto.

• Good, but incorrect, guesses included Balboa Park's former nudist colony at Zoro Garden and the Juniper Staircase down Cabrillo Canyon.

The big picture: The Golden Hill Fountain Grotto — just outside the main loop in Golden Hill Park, which is within Balboa Park's boundaries — was designed in 1907 by Henry Lord Gay.

• He's better known for designing the Western Metal Supply Company Building in left field of Petco Park, the defining feature of one of America's best ballparks.

Zoom in: In 2016, Boy Scout Troop 53 and Will McCullough improved landscaping surrounding the fountain.

• It continues to be plagued by graffiti, vandalism and poor maintenance.
