UHCA Community Meetings

UHCA Community Meetings are our monthly chance to gather together as neighbors and learn about issues that affect our neighborhood. We feature guest speakers updating on events at the library, UHCA events, elected officials, and more. Special guests are also invited to speak on topical issues that pertain to University Heights. Our meetings take place in the Alice Birney Elementary School auditorium which is located along Campus at the intersection of Meade. We look forward to seeing you there!

Featured speaker: Kristin Harms with the University Heights Historical Society will talk about the people and events that shaped the early development of University Heights.

Founded in 1888, University Heights is one of San Diego’s oldest neighborhoods and home to the former Mission Cliff Gardens, Bentley Ostrich Farm, San Diego Silk Mill, Adams Avenue Carbarn, the first reservoir for the city’s municipal water system, and the San Diego Normal School, forerunner to San Diego State University.

Like so many of the early communities in San Diego, development of University Heights was driven by transportation, the availability of potable water, and the 1915 Panama-California Exposition.
