The long-awaited Scripps Park Pavilion restroom facility had a soft opening Jan. 21, 2022 when the fencing came down and the water was turned on. The project, which was introduced in January 2014, is a replacement “comfort station” in Ellen Browning Scripps Park adjacent to La Jolla Cove. The project demolished the former comfort station and added a new facility including more toilets, unisex toilet stalls, showers, changing rooms, storage space and more. Safdie Rabines Architects designed the new facility.
The La Jolla Parks & Beaches, Inc. raised over $25k in donations early on in the process from local groups and individuals to initially come up with the vision and proposal to the City of San Diego and Parks & Recreation Dept. There was much involvement and feedback to the City and its construction from the LJPB work groups led by Judy Halter and the community as to design, functionality, and operation of the new Scripps Park Pavilion.
