Presidential Visits

Here in Coronado we have been blessed to have 11 President’s visit our our island.

The first being President Benjamin Harrison, pictured here on April 23, 1891 after having breakfast at The Del. This was the first time an in-office United States President had visited San Diego.

Later, Harrison told future President William Taft (another Coronado visitor), “One who has ever breathed this atmosphere would want to live here always.”.

Wish I would have been around during that conversation, I would have given them my card.
