Major thoroughfares include Palm Avenue, Coronado Avenue, Picador Boulevard, Del Sol Boulevard, Beyer Boulevard, and Beyer Way. ==History== ''Otay'' (pronounced ''Oh-Tie'') is derived from the Kumeyaay language. Although its meaning is disputed,〔(Google Books, San Diego County Place Names A to Z, Leland Fetzer. )〕 possible derivations include "otai", meaning "brushy"; "Tou-ti" meaning "big mountain";〔(Google Books, San Diego County Place Names A to Z, Leland Fetzer. )〕 or "etaay" meaning "big".〔Gudde, Erwin. California Place Names, 4th ed. University of California Press, 1998. http://books.google.com/books?id=Kqwt5RlMVBoC&pg=PA273&dq=otay+otai&hl=en&ei=z19xTZGhEY-osAPLx-XQCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CC4Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=otay%20otai&f=false p.273〕 ''Mesa'' is the Spanish word for plateau, table or tableland. The Otay Mesa West area was used by John J. Montgomery for his experimentation with manned gliders in the 1880s. The Montgomery family ranch was located in the Otay River valley below. The area which now includes Otay Mesa West was annexed from San Diego County along with other portions of South San Diego in 1957.
