The History of La Mesa

La Mesa began as a small Citrus Farming community, 700 local citrus farmers banded together with local businessmen, home-seekers and developers to incorporate La Mesa as its own City. The City’s natural springs attracted farmers and ranchers, most notably Robert Allison in 1869, who originally named La Mesa, “Allison Springs”, the name was later changed to “La Mesa Springs” and finally in 1912 upon incorporation it was named La Mesa.

Historic La Mesa Real Estate

The transformation from a small agricultural town to a blooming residential area began in about 1906 when Sherman Grable purchased 100 acres from Charles Park, the two then formed the Park-Grable investment company which is responsible for building 1,000 homes on 200 acres in central La Mesa, the area quickly grew to a population of 700 residents and the lands that were grazed by cattle and harvested by citrus farmers were transformed into residential areas for San Diego residents looking to settle down.

To this day La Mesa remains one of San Diego’s most historic neighborhoods and the City of La Mesa in partnership with the La Mesa Historical Society maintains a number of historical monuments throughout the city to honor the rich history of the region.
