La Jolla is a hilly seaside neighborhood of the city of San Diego. The Kumeyaay called the place mat kulaaxuuy, "land of holes," probably for the sea caves in its north-facing bluffs, and the Spanish may have transcribed that name as La Jolla. Accounts of the name differ. A popular explanation, disputed by scholars, derives it from the Spanish la joya, "the jewel," which gave the community its nickname, and another from la hoya, a hollow.
In the Mexican period La Jolla was mapped as pueblo land with about 60 lots, and when California became a state in 1850 it became part of the chartered City of San Diego. Charles Dean bought several pueblo lots in 1870 and subdivided them as La Jolla Park, but he could not develop them and left in 1881. A real estate boom in the 1880s brought the speculators Frank T. Botsford and George W. Heald to develop the sparsely settled area further. In the 1890s the San Diego, Pacific Beach and La Jolla Railway connected La Jolla with the rest of San Diego, and it became a resort, with a bathhouse, a dance pavilion, cottages above La Jolla Cove and a summer tent city. Two cottages built in 1894, the Red Roost and the Red Rest, are the oldest buildings still on their original sites, though the Red Rest was largely destroyed by fire in November 2020. The La Jolla Park Hotel opened in 1893, and the Hotel Cabrillo, built in 1908, later became part of La Valencia Hotel. By 1900 La Jolla had 100 buildings and 350 residents, and its first reading room opened in 1898. Sources Wikipedia: La Jolla
