   Created by locals over a decade ago, Friends of Coast Walk Trail is a nonprofit organization solely operated and funded by community donations to restore and preserve the 0.6 mile trail along the bluffs of La Jolla coastline. Originally intended to be used as a road in the 1920s, Coast Walk Trail is deemed a “paper” street that is managed by San Diego’s Transportation Department. Designated as a historic asset in 1990, Coast Walk Trail is believed to have been used for over 9,000 years, collecting countless notable events throughout its presence.
