Little Italy is a Very Happening Place

610 W. Ash St. is the only office tower in Little Italy.

SAN DIEGO—From a variety of eateries to its proximity to the water and airport, as well as its sense of community, Little Italy has emerged as one of the most desirable places in Downtown San Diego to live, work and play, A10 Capital executives John Rodiles, senior EVP, responsible for West Coast origination, and Chris Tierney, EVP, tell GlobeSt.com. The firm recently closed a $33-million loan to refinance a 19-story office property at 610 W. Ash St. in the Little Italy neighborhood.

The 177,400-square foot property is owned by Gemini Rosemont and is the only office tower in Little Italy, a popular destination for residents and tourists. The building is 97% occupied with 13 tenants, including an international cybersecurity firm and the General Services Administration.
