Old Town, located between Fisherman’s Wharf and the Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail, is a historic and waterfront Monterey neighborhood with adobe-era streetscapes and a working-harbor edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Alvarado Street near Custom House Plaza, where galleries, wine bars, and independent shops spill into the evening sidewalk scene. Cultural pillars include the Monterey Museum of Art, the Golden State Theatre, and the historic Larkin House. Architecture shifts from preserved adobes and Victorian-era facades to compact mixed-use blocks with upstairs balconies. The shoreline path frames daily routines with sea air, bikes, and long views across the bay. Pocket plazas and waterfront overlooks keep the pace walkable and public-facing.
