Coronado Island (eCoronado.com)

Coronado Island's #1 Community Website & Online Newspaper

eCoronado.com sat down with Bruce Johnson to talk about his memories of Coronado. Bruce is a local businessman and lifelong Coronado resident - and a great conversationalist! Bruce talks about being born on North Island, bike races down the Strand, beer kegs over tall Coronado dunes, attending Coronado High School and much more. Bruce shares some great stories and historical perspective of 'island life' before the Bridge, Shores, Cays and more. Please enjoy the four movies below in order of appearance.


Bruce discusses his family history, being a youth in Coronado during the 1950's, and the Ferry Landing.



Bruce discusses his childhood, Coronado High School, the impact of the bridge and the quaint village of Coronado.



Bruce discusses the Coronado Shores, life as a teenager, the Strand, and his views on Coronado as a Navy town.



Bruce discusses Coronado Island, traffic, the tunnel, and the future.
