Description:

I have a couple of postcards from the Outrigger Motel located in the Point Loma area of San Diego. It is right across the street from the famous Fisherman's Landing fishing docks.

This one shows the exterior with the large and small Outrigger signs with a nice font.

There was even an old outrigger in front of the building.

Postcard of the pool area. If you compare this to the previous card you can see it was early as the new landscaping had not grown yet.

Then I got an old brochure from when in opened that has some more photos and information.

The sign at night.

Pool area.

The brochure had some photos of the mid-century modern designed interiors.

And finally, my favorite photo of the small sign with the Fisherman's Landing sport-fishing dock in background. Have been there many times!

Here is and old ad from the opening.

And an ashtray.

News photo of the sign and the fishing landing.

The building is still there but no signs of it's previous self.
