Shopping

Called the "Rodeo Drive of San Diego," La Jolla's Prospect Street overlooks the ocean and is lined with small specialty shops, boutiques, antique emporiums, and art galleries.

Girard Avenue, intersecting with Prospect Street, features everything from Armani to Meanley & Son Hardware. New stores mix with mainstays like Warwicks Stationers offering the finest in pens, stationery and literature since 1896. Hipster clothing boutiques, art galleries and an eclectic selection of eateries make Girard Avenue appealing to every shopper's tastes and interests.

The area of upper Girard near Pearl Street is referred to as the "Design District," home to lifestyle stores like Nestlife, Seaside Home and other interior design and furniture stores.
