Del Mar was named in the late
1800's by Ella Loop. She and husband, Theodore, owned a tent city
by the beach which was also called Del Mar, Spanish for "by
the sea". Theodore, worked as a contractor and engineer for
the California Southern Railroad which arrived in Del Mar in 1882.
Theodore Loop next formed a partnership with Jacob Taylor to sell
50 x 140 foot lots. |

Their marketing created
some traffic and interest which helped launch South Coast Land Company's
resort with the centerpiece Stratford Inn. Receiving electricity
from San Diego Gas and Electric in the late 1920s, residential areas
began taking shape and the area experienced its boom. In 1959 Del
Mar residents decided to incorporate as a city with a five-member
City Council rather than become part of the City of San Diego. |
