It’s about time. MTV’s real world is heading to San Diego. Sun and surf equal exposed bodies and higher ratings. They start filming next month so they are likely to get the best beach weather of the year. If MTV history is any guide expect the group house to be in Mission Beach, Pacific Beach or La Jolla.
Casting is underway for seven strangers picked to live in the house. The series starts in January 2004.
Hat Tip: Yahoo

It’s gotta be La Jolla or points north. I can’t think of any beachfront property in PB or MB that would be big enough and secure enough.
I could be wrong though.
I thought about that, but RW Chicago was right in the heart of a residential area and they completely deck out the loft with security systems, etc. I wouldn’t be surprised if you are right, but I think they would want the scenery shots from the boardwalk. Maybe they’ll have some late night drunken scenes at Roberto’s at the Coaster…
I think La Jolla as well, next guess would be Mission Beach. From what I know about San Diego County, there are more things to do in these areas.
Well for all of you that have been wondering where it will be I know for a fact that the house is in POINT LOMA!!
My b’f’s dad is a UPS driver and he’s been delivering packages to the “Real World” house.
I drove by the house last night after being tipped off from my fisherman neighbor. It’s in Point Loma right on the harbor. It’s in an odd location, no houses around the area. It’s bright blue and they were working on it when I drove by.
Should be interesting, dirty fisherman and MTV!
I’m trying to find the house so I can put pictures of it on my site (www.realworldhouses.com). Do you remember the street name?
Thanks
matt i thought u wanted to WITHHOLD the address, its because u dont no it, i see. anyways i dont live anywhere close to san diego, can someone get any upclose pics. the pic of the sid was a good one though.
It’s in Point Loma
The address is 4922 North Harbor Drive. It is the old Blue Crab Restaurant.
are you sure its that, they dont have any pictures of it anywhere, i wanna see the front of the house!
sorry bout that i donno y i did that…i think i have a tick
As far as I can tell it is. On the way up some guys working on a car in the parking lot adjacent to the docks asked me if I was working there. He seemed to know about it. There were also a dispropotionate amount of security people/fences for any other kind of building. The house is the same as the realworldhouses.com guy had pics of. I asked one of the security guys when someone would be moving in, and he just smiled. It has a big volleyball pit on the side facing harbor drive and some exercise equipment in the bottom floor with the large window. If you are in SD, check it out yourself and see what you think.
My sister and I found it after driving around for an hour. The house is so cool but there are gross cockaroaches everywhere.
Hi! I am a HUGE RW fan – THE BIGGEST! I have just rented scuba gear and I am planning on climbing up the rocks and sneaking into the new house in Point Loma and becoming the un-official 8th roommate! I’m so glad I found this website! I love you all!
I just think this will be the best Real World ever because OB is the most BEAUTIFUL place in the world! I especially love to go to Tony’s – it’s a FINE BAR! Not only that, I used to spend lots of time down at the docks – I know they’ll love hanging out with all the fishermen!
I am so sad that I moved away from SD last summer. I’m thinking I might move back just so that I can stalk the Real World house. My husband’s parents own a boat that is docked nearby; I’m thinking about living on it so I can spy on the cast! If I pull the boat up close enough to the shore I could probably get some great candid shots of all the guys!!!
We are the biggest fans, we never miss an episode. Kris tried out for this season and didn’t make it, I am hoping to get in next year’s version “Real World Houston”. We are planning on having parties every night that the show is on so that we can giggle and scream when they show clips of places we’ve been! Whoooo!
I tried to get on too, but they told me I was too good looking and that I would make everyone look bad. I think its because of my accent. I guess the world isn’t ready for another Ricky Ricardo.
Totally gnarly dudes, like oh my god totally no way for shure. This is like the greatest thing to happen since Dick Van Patten’s Potato and Duck flavor crunch balls! I am sooo excited (does anyone have a plastic bag?). I am really hoping that they have a pet area like the doggie jail at my house. I bet that if they have any dogs there I could kick their asses. They should bring back “Puck” he had a cool name and lots of “tats”. Well I used to mark my territory in that area but now that MTV is there I really want to go back and make sure the area is well covered.
Yo yo “Honey”, somebody need to tell you what time it is . . . you mangy ass yellow fur wearin flea scratchin bizatch. If you even try to step to my “hood” (pl pussycat possie) I will bust you down like an ole litter box. You feel me?
-dexto the scratchmaster jonz
Ahhight “HONEE”
I am the baddest, meanest, most kickass lab in the PL hood. Don’t even be tryin to mark my hood! Try lifting a leg once in a while! And another thing, Dick Van Patten’s Potato and Duck is whack. I be grubbin straight out da can, Ralston Purina style! Booyaa
the real world house is across the bay from the sportfishing landings. They stared moving the cast in today 8/23.
hey guys….why the hell Point Loma? That’s the MOST lame location ever…they should have picked downtown San Diego, that’s where all the life is. Pacific Beach even, for christ sakes. I’m very dissapointed they picked the shabbiest area of San Diego. Hillcrest, Beach towns, and Downtown woul dhave been a much better choice.
I totally agree! Why oh why Point Loma? I’ve passed the house, it’s in a totally ghetto location! They are at the end of a street of fisherman. Where are they supposed to go out? Where do you guys think they’ll go out? Bad call on MTVs part!!
The RW peeps were up in PB Bar and Grill last night, cameras and all. They all look like average joes… a blondie, an asian, a punk, average looking guys.
And so it starts…
I’m pissed! I was going to go there last night, it figures. My plan is to mack one of the girls and make my way into the house. The mission is on!
We met up with the cast at PB Bar and Grill. Awesome adventure. Got invited back to the house and had a great time. I know everything!
well,
first of all point loma is an awesome location! I go to PLNU and one of our dorms was listed in surf mag as the best dorm at a uni to surf at/and the hot chicks add to the atmosphere….
and…yeah theres ob…mexico.
rw will see how cool sd is (and how much better it is than l.a.)
my cousin is a manager for an apt complex in point loma and she says that the director for the real world leased a one bedroom across the hall from her.
-peace
does anyone have anyother pics that they can scan of the house? well if u do send it to my email..PLEASE!
Lucky, how did you meet them? You just started talking to them at the grill? Where do they hang out? I can’t beleive you made it back. You beat me to it! Are the girls hot?
wonder if they’re gonna be at street scene this wknd.
I bet they’ll be at street sceen. Good luck seeing them…..that place gets so packed that it sucks!!!!!
um that’s funny…the show doesn’t start taping until what October No one is even in the house yet 🙂
The RW was at Decos last night. I danced with one of the guys. He was kinda cute shaggy hair, but not too bright. One of the girls, a blond had a major attitude about people taking her picture there. I guess it’s already getting to their heads.
Check out the smokinggun.com
One of the girls got arrested at PB bar and grill. Me and a friend talked to her and one of the other girls earlier in the night. We left before the whole thing went down.
Yo Delia…the papers may have said shooting doesn’t start till October, but umm…better check your sources again cuz — it’s been taping for a good 3 weeks now. I’ve partied with them at Decos and PB Bar N Grill. And I suggest you drive by the house again, cuz the cast moved in a few weeks ago (I was at the airport when a couple of the cast members arrived!)
QtNsexy….What cast members did you party with? Were they cool? I saw 2 of the girls at the grill on tuesday before that girl got arrested.
They said on the news that Robin was arrested at Moondoggies…how nice for MTV…wonder if she’ll be staying on the cast or not
She started a fight with a guy who was in line at Moondoggies. After the fight she went to PB Bar and Grill. When the cops came they had the producer bring her outside………and then she got arrested.
Help me out here. So Cameran is hot (saw a picture of her). Saw Robin(not so hot), but what do Frankie and Jamie look like? I heard there was an asian and a blomde, which is which, anyone know. I hear Randy is a good looking guy, and one guy is black, what about the other dude?
Frankie has short red hair a lip ring and had on black glasses when I saw her. I wouldn’t call her hot. Randy wasn’t that good looking…….he looked a little shaggy. Don’t know about the others.
The cast was at Dave and Busters in Mission Valley. Only 4 of the cast was there I beleive. I met and talked to the punk chick. Didnt happen to catch her name but she was mad cool to talk to. One girl that said she was from SF was there too but kinda quiet. Another girl was with them and he was real quiet too. Didnt say anything at all. The one guy that was with them was off somewhere else playing games or whatever. Maybe he was the token gay guy hanging out with all of the girls
What did the guy look like at Dave and Busters?
So Frankie is the punk? Is Jamie the blonde?
I think Frankie is the punk chick. I didnt happen to catch her name when she said it. The blonde chick wasn’t there. The guy had blonde hair. Thats all I could really tell because when I saw him he was eating dinner and the staff wouldnt let us go down there. When I met the girls the guy was off doing his own thing somewhere. I didnt see him again
I drove by the house, but it is on a cul-de-sac. It is so heavily guarded that we couldn’t even walk close to it. Does anyone know how we could get closer to take a peek?
If you go down Shelter Island Drive…go to the Red Sails Inn Restaurant..very causal place. Sit outide on the patio. You can see the house from across the bay.
the house isn’t heavily guarded at all times. when i went there this past Saturday, there was absolutely no one outside. I saw them filming on the outside patio. I came back later on that evening tho and there were a couple guys there ready to scoot people away…. where did you guys see pictures of any of the cast members?
So when do we get a chance to smoke these Real World fools? We need somebody who’s not a complete MTV dork to infiltrate that house. Where are the “Real People?”
I remember when Rachel from the San Fransisco Real World used to study at a cafe in Pacific Beach. My friend asked her for Puck’s phone number and she started cryign as usual. Get over it you lame-ass. I think they should put Puck in every season to make these idiot’s lives a living hell. Then, and only then would I watch.
I was at the house on Sunday around 7pm. I couldn’t even get down the cul-de-sac because there was a guard that wouldn’t let anyone through. But I only live 5 mins away so I guess I can always try again. Any suggestions to where I might spot them around town?
