North Park is
located in the heart of San Diego, just north of Balboa
Park. An
older community, North Park has been undergoing a renaissance since 1993. New
sidewalks, landscaping and an influx of arts, culture and entertainment
make North Park
worth a visit.

In January 2004, the North Park
Street Gallery entered its final phase of utility box painting.
Throughout North Park more utility boxes were transformed into works
of art by local artists. Artists came and painted the boxes in wide
variety of styles and themes.
