When the expansion of downtown San Diego after WWII threatened the buildings that now reside in Heritage Park with demolition seven buildings were acquired and relocated to Heritage Park over a period of 25 years. The former homes are: Bushyhead House (1887), McConaughy House (1887), Sherman-Gilbert House (1887), Christian House (1889), Temple Beth Israel (1889), Burton House (1893) and Senlis Cottage (1896). All seven buildings are unique in their structure and color scheme. It’s a creepy beauty in the day time and night.
If at night you walk down the asphalt streets with the houses on all sides of you, you’ll get this eerie feeling that eyes are on you. You may hear invisible footsteps in the well manicured grass that’s just out of sight in the shadows or see a shadow in the form of a person peeking curiously from behind a tree at you.
When we went we felt a presence that wasn’t too strong probably the people who lived there prior watching over the neighborhood. The housings were pretty dark and the presence wasn’t anything evil.
