Under contract to CDM, SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) prepared a built environment evaluation report to identify built environment resources on Terminal Island to assess whether properties are eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), or as a City of Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument (HCM) or Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ). The scope of work for this project includes an initial windshield survey of the entire project area, including inspection of all buildings, structures, and associated features, followed by an intensive-level survey of properties on Terminal Island. Property research for the project includes a review of previous built environment studies conducted on Terminal Island, archival research, and completion of a draft and final report detailing the results of the intensive survey and subsequent property evaluations, as well as a historic context statement. Finally, data and maps collected through field surveys, research, and the significance evaluations will be submitted to the City of Los Angeles Office of Historic Resources (OHR) for review and approval. Dates of Investigation: SWCA conducted the initial windshield survey of Terminal Island on August 3, 2011, followed by intensive-level surveys on August 24 and October 4, 2011. SWCA conducted archival research and preparation of the historic context throughout the months of July, August, and September 2011. Finally, SWCA completed and submitted a draft report in November 2011 and a final report in December 2011. Summary of Findings: As a result of the built environment surveys, 48 properties were identified within the project area. Of these, 16 were recorded and evaluated for NRHP and CRHR eligibility, as well as local designation as a City of Los Angeles HCM or HPOZ. Of the 16 properties evaluated for historic significance, four appear to be eligible for listing in the NRHP as an individual property (status code 3S); one appears to be eligible for listing in the CRHR as an individual property (status code 3CS); one appears to be eligible for local listing or designation (status code 5S3); and 10 were found to be ineligible for the NRHP, CRHR, or for local designation (status code 6Z). The remaining 32 properties were exempt from further evaluation for one of two reasons: (1) the property was recently evaluated for historic significance (within the past five years); or (2) the property is of the recent past and not enough time has passed to adequately evaluate it for historic significance. Investigation Constraints: Some of the properties evaluated as part of this study required permission to access. While most of the intensive-level survey was completed on August 24, 2011, additional survey was required on October 4, 2011, to photograph and evaluate those properties that could not be accessed in August. These constraints did not affect adequacy or completion of this evaluation report. Management Recommendations: SWCA recommends that the results of this study be used to guide future planning efforts that may impact Port of Los Angeles–owned properties on Terminal Island. It is further recommended that Port of Los Angeles-owned properties on Terminal Island be subject to updated survey and evaluation overtime, and that more recently constructed properties continue to be identified and considered in the planning process. If a survey is more than five years old, it should be updated to determine if any historical resources have become eligible or ineligible due to changing circumstances or new documentation. Because the Port of Los Angeles Land Use Plan is anticipated to be in effect until the year 2030, any associated projects that have the potential to impact historical resources should be identified and considered early on in the planning process. i Built Environment Evaluation Report Terminal Island, Port of Los Angeles Disposition of Data: This report and any subsequent related reports will be filed with CDM; the Port of Los Angeles Environmental Management Division; the City of Los Angeles OHR; the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) at California State University, Fullerton; and SWCA’s Pasadena office. All field notes, photographs, and records related to the current study are on file at the SWCA Pasadena, California, office. ii Built Environment Evaluation Report Terminal Island, Port of Los Angeles CONTENTS Management Summary/Abstract ............................................................................................................... i Introduction ................................................................................................................................................. 1 Project Location and Description .............................................................................................................. 1 Regulatory Setting ...................................................................................................................................... 5 Federal ....................................................................................................................................................... 5 State ........................................................................................................................................................... 7 Local ......................................................................................................................................................... 7 Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monuments .......................................................................................... 7 Historic Preservation Overlay Zones .................................................................................................... 8 Substantial Adverse Change ..................................................................................................................... 9 Methodology .............................................................................................................................................. 10 Developing the Historic Context ............................................................................................................. 10 Background Research ............................................................................................................................. 10 Built Environment Surveys ..................................................................................................................... 11 Property Significance Evaluations .......................................................................................................... 11 Historic Context ........................................................................................................................................ 12 Early Harbor Development, –1897 ......................................................................................................... 12 Development and Occupation of the Harbor and Terminal Island, 1897–1918 ..................................... 13 World War I – World War II .................................................................................................................. 14 Wartime Changes, 1941–1945 ................................................................................................................ 18 Containerization and Other Postwar Developments ............................................................................... 18 Results ........................................................................................................................................................ 21 Background Research ............................................................................................................................. 21 Built Environment Survey ...................................................................................................................... 22 Property Significance Evaluations .......................................................................................................... 22 Properties

Stock#: 48538 Map Maker: Southern Pacific Railroad Company Date: 1910 circa Place: n.p. Color: Condition: VG- Size: 31 x 65 inches Price: SOLD Description: Fine early map of Terminal Island, in San Pedro California, drawn for the Southern Pacific Railroad. The map illustrates Terminal Island at the beginning of its modern history, before the island was substantially reshaped and modified by dredging and reclamation projects that created the modern harbors at San Pedro and Long Beach. The map show the City of San Pedro at the right, with the lines of the Southern Pacific. Below, a line identified as Los Angeles Terminal Railway traverses Terminal Island, with a railway station, Hotel Site, Mill, Lumber Yard and Coal Yard shown, along with several wharfs. The location of the Catalina Yacht club is also noted (constructed in 1898). The map shows Morman (Mormon) Island and Smith Island, both of which have also been dramatically reshaped by modern port projects. Mormon Island was the site of an short-lived settlement attempt by San Bernardino-based Mormon pioneers in the 1850s. Terminal Island The island was originally called Isla Raza de Buena Gente and later Rattlesnake Island. It was renamed Terminal Island in 1891. In 1891, the Terminal Land Company purchased the island and a railway was built on to its east side by the Los Angeles Terminal Railroad Company.

  • Synopsis in Pdf Format
    FURUSATO - The Lost Village of Terminal Island Those who came of age during World War II have been called “The Greatest Generation”. On Terminal Island, California this generation is known as the ‘Nisei’ – or second generation Japanese, the American-born sons and daughters of immigrant parents. On the southern edge of the Port of Los Angeles, this isolated village offered a unique childhood experience. More than 3000 residents lived in a very small area known as Fish Harbor in San Pedro, 99% of whom were Japanese or Japanese American. While their parents worked as fishermen or cannery workers, the Nisei’s memory of Terminal Island is as an idyllic place, where they were often allowed to roam free, share dinner at a friend’s house, or dive for abalone near the beach. The culture of Japan was everywhere, from the Shinto Shrine to the Japanese Fisherman’s Hall where Kendo and Judo were taught. Physically and culturally isolated, the residents developed a unique dialect which combined Japanese and English – often in ways that were confusing to outsiders who spoke one or the other. The Terminal Island ‘lingo’ was symbolic of their status in California, accepted by neither the majority culture nor by other Japanese, the Terminal Islanders came to refer to themselves as ‘Yogores’ – dark and dirty on the outside, but pure and clean of heart within. As the Nisei grew older, they attended San Pedro High School and began to share American traditions with their Issei parents. Baseball games became a weekly event, sponsored by village businesses and fishermen.

  • APPENDIX C Aesthetics and Visual Resources: Sensitive Public Views of the PMPU Area
    APPENDIX C Aesthetics and Visual Resources: Sensitive Public Views of the PMPU Area 1 Critical views for impact evaluations conducted for aesthetics and visual resources, as addressed in 2 Section 3.1, Aesthetics and Visual Resources, are defined as those sensitive public views that would be 3 most affected by a proposed action, such as the greatest intensity of impact due to viewer proximity to a 4 project, the project’s visibility, and the duration of the affected view. The analyses are based on “worst- 5 case” circumstances of maximum proposed Program exposure to the most sensitive public views. It is a 6 premise of the technical approach that the range of critical public views potentially affected by the 7 proposed Program should be represented by the views chosen for analysis. This appendix presents an 8 initial consideration of sensitive public views of the PMPU area which are critical to the assessment of 9 impacts on aesthetics and visual resources within this area. 10 The region of influence for the aesthetics/visual resources impact analysis includes the Port, the Port of 11 Long Beach, and sensitive land uses near these ports (e.g., parks, beaches, tourist facilities, and residential 12 areas). Communities within the region include San Pedro, Rancho Palos Verdes, Wilmington, and Long 13 Beach. These points are located on all but the east side of the PMPU area. The sections below describe 14 views from all potentially critical view areas relative to the PMPU area, with the list of views most 15 relevant to impact evaluations for the PEIR representing a subset of all areas, as presented in Section 16 3.1.2.2, PMPU Area.
