San Diego Union-Tribune: Community celebrates opening of park named for retired assistant police chief

The 15-acre Cesar Solis Park, off Del Sol Boulevard, is the result of more than a decade’s work.

“It actually feels a little bit unbelievable,” Councilman David Alvarez said of the park’s opening. “It’s one of the most satisfying days of the eight years on the council.”

Alvarez, whose district includes Ocean View Hills, was instrumental over the years in pushing for funding for the roughly $17 million park.
