Serving OB, the Peninsula and San Diego Beaches
Wild weather caused a tree to fall on a house in Ocean Beach. No one was injured, but the person inside had to exit through a skylight due to the doors being jammed by the fallen tree. The house at 4720 Narragansett was red tagged until the tree is removed. Bad luck on a Christmas Eve.

That poorly maintained four house compound is owned by the former architect Tom Grondona’s trust. The jungle of trees on that property looks like it has never been maintained.
The trust also owns the house that has been falling apart for 25 years on Ullman, just above Canon Street.
There is a giant pine tree on the Narragansett property that is threatening the neighbors to the west, also. I wouldn’t want to be one of his tenants nor one of this neighbors!
Prop 13 baby!
