Why Newport Beach Homes Get Retrofitted
The older parts of Newport Beach, including the Balboa Peninsula, Balboa Island, and Corona del Mar, still have beach cottages from the 1920s through the 1940s. Many sit on raised foundations, and some on sandy soil that makes the foundation connection matter even more.
Newport Beach is where the Newport-Inglewood Fault leaves the coast and heads offshore. It is the southern half of the fault's name.
