Add to My List Check Off

Located in the rear yard of 1517 Ynez Place, was designated a Heritage Tree on May 20, 2021, the first Pinus Canariensis so designated in the City. Native to the outer Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, it is a subtropical evergreen pine. This majestic tree stands about eighty feet tall, the approximate maximum height for this species and is visible from as far away as the Coronado Bridge. Blue Heron nests have reportedly been sighted in the tree by residents from time to time. The tree was planted nearly a century ago, among a large group of Canary Island Pines planted throughout Coronado at that time. It can be seen from both the front and back of the historic, Irving-Gill designed home, named after Dr. Lorini who was the resident physician at the Hotel Del Coronado for more than 30 years.
