Shortly after the La Jolla Shores house that once was home to famed oceanographer Walter Munk was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, UC San Diego has announced its intent to sell it. A timeline for the sale was not announced.
The State Historical Resources Commission determined April 30 that the house, called Seiche, was eligible for and would be nominated to the National Register. It was listed there July 12.
Munk’s daughters said they support UCSD’s decision to sell. His widow, Mary Coakley Munk, said that while she is “profoundly disappointed” with the choice, she hopes the right buyer will come along.

Late oceanographer Walter Munk's former home damaged by fallen tree; its future is uncertain


Seiche, the lush and landscaped La Jolla Shores property once home to famed oceanographer Walter Munk, was damaged last week when a tree fell over during a storm. The tree’s roots raised the ground about eight feet, damaging the guest house roof, compromising its foundation and breaking some underground lines Jan. 26.
Munk died in February 2019 at age 101, but his widow, Mary Coakley Munk, has been living in the main house.
She said she wasn’t in the guest house when the tree toppled and didn’t know anything was amiss until she couldn’t turn on the water around 6:15 a.m.
