Arrive in ultimate prestige as double elevator doors open directly into your private domain. Showcasing unobstructed, breathtaking $360^\circ$ panoramic views of the San Diego skyline, bay, and beyond that can never be built out, this fully updated penthouse seamlessly blends vintage glamour with elevated modern living. The main residence features expansive living spaces bathed in natural light, framing dramatic cityscapes from every room.

Step outside onto your expansive private terrace—a rare downtown outdoor sanctuary offering ample space for alfresco dining and sunset entertaining against the backdrop of the city lights. Beyond its incredible aesthetic appeal, the property offers major financial advantages. Benefit from the building's official Mills Act Historical Designation, capping annual property taxes at just north of $5,000 per year—a rare financial benefit that makes this unbeatable for value in downt
