Stingaree, San Diego
The Stingaree was a neighborhood of San Diego between the boom of the 1880s and the cleanup of 1916. The reason for the neighborhood's fame was its role as the home to the city's "undesirables", including prostitutes, pimps, drug dealers and gamblers. For similar reasons of societal exclusion, it was also the site of the city's first Chinatown.〔Elizabeth Perl (Spring, 1977). San Diego's Chinese Mission, ''The Journal of San Diego History'': Spring 1977, 23:2.〕 Additionally, the neighborhood was home to many other lower-class citizens, and was in the center of a wider blue-collar residential area encompassing much of the city south of Broadway.〔Mike Davis, Kelly Mayhew, Jim Miller. ''Under the Perfect Sun.'' The New Press: New York, 2005〕
Though the name "Stingaree" (a synonym of stingray) refers primarily to the period before 1916, the neighborhood's character as a vice district lasted until its massive redevelopment in the 1980s.
==Boundaries==
The exact boundaries of the neighborhood are contested and likely changed throughout the years. The Health Department identified them as First and Fifth streets and Market and K streets.〔Elizabeth C. MacPhail (Spring, 1974). WHEN THE RED LIGHTS WENT OUT IN SAN DIEGO, The Little Known Story of San Diego's 'Restricted' District, ''The Journal of San Diego History'': Spring 1974, 20:2.〕
