The Grand Pacific Hotel is a historic Victorian era building located at 366 5th Avenue in the Gaslamp Quarter of San Diego, California. It is on the SW Corner of 5th and J Street. It was built in 1887. It was run as a hotel and in 1901 it became the home of the Helping Hand Mission. In 1907 it returned as a hotel with the children’s area of the Helping Hands remaining, which eventually became the Children’s Memorial Hospital of San Diego. The building remained a hotel onder various names and management until May 1960. In the mid- 70s, the Grand Pacific became a contributing building to the rebirth of the Gaslamp Quarter Historic District and is on the National Register of Historic Places.[1][2]
