William Kettner was a Democratic Congressmen who served in the early 1900s. During his service, he was credited with securing federal funds for the dredging of the San Diego harbor so it could accommodate bigger ships, the construction of the All-American Canal and bringing a Panama-California Exposition to San Diego (for which Balboa Park was established). Kettner, while shrewd also won friends easily with his warm personality and addressed colleagues as “brother”, earning him the nickname of “Brother Bill” in San Diego and Washington. He was known as an honest man, an intelligent negotiator and most importantly a friend. Among his many friends were assistant secretary of the Navy Franklin D. Roosevelt and Commander of the Second Battalion of the Fourth Regiment of the Marines Colonel Joseph Pendleton. Kettner was able to convince Roosevelt that the San Diego climate would be healthier than the Bay Area for the naval recruits and in 1919 plans to bring the Navy to San Diego passed in Congress.

By the time Kettner died at the age of 65 in November 1930, San Diego was home to an improved Naval Base in Point Loma, the 32nd Street Naval Station, Naval Air Station North Island, Naval Medical Center at Balboa, Camp Kearney (now MCAS Miramar), and the Marine Corps Recruit Depot. More importantly San Diego was now one of the largest and most influential cities in the country.

As we were designing Kettner Exchange, we sought to pay homage to Kettner’s accomplishments by creating a dignified yet welcoming environment with subtle nods to our great bay and nautical history. We’d like to think many influential and peerless big shots such as Kettner will enter this place, enjoy an honest drink and a gratifying meal in America’s Finest City.
