Though the city had adopted its first historic preservation ordinance, written by Dr. Robert Winter and writer Miv Schaff, a public advocacy group was urgently needed. Pasadena Heritage became that group. Pasadena Heritage worked with neighbors to downzone 1980 Down-zoning neighborhoods to protect them single-family neighborhoods near downtown.

  • 1 MICROPILE FOUNDATIONS for RECONSTRUCTION of HISTORIC LA LOMA BRIDGE in PASADENA, CALIFORNIA Casey Garneau1 ABSTRACT
    MICROPILE FOUNDATIONS FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF HISTORIC LA LOMA BRIDGE IN PASADENA, CALIFORNIA Casey Garneau1 ABSTRACT: The historic La Loma Bridge, which crosses the Arroyo Seco in Pasadena, California, was built in 1914 to replace the 1898 California Street Bridge. The bridge is an open spandrel concrete arch bridge with a neoclassical design, which draws inspiration from Greek and Roman architectural design features with Renaissance interpretations of the classical forms. Inspired by the City Beautiful Movement, the bridge was built in response to the advent of the automobile and the increase in population in the surrounding areas. Built just a year after, the La Loma Bridge, pictured in Figure 1, displays similarities of its “big sister”, Pasadena’s famous Colorado Street Bridge, nicknamed “Suicide Bridge”, which spans the Arroyo Seco less than a mile away. While the Colorado Street bridge connected Pasadena to Los Angeles, the La Loma Bridge played a substantial part in Pasadena’s development of the west side of the Arroyo, largely called San Rafael Heights, which was annexed by the City of Pasadena by the completion of this bridge. For several years, the two bridges were the only crossings over the Lower Arroyo and represent the city’s economic and physical need to facilitate automobile traffic over the Arroyo, while also providing impressive picturesque structures for the nearby communities. Figure 1 – Original La Loma Bridge 1 Project Manager, Malcolm Drilling Co., Inc., 4926 North Azusa Canyon Rd., Irwindale, CA 91706 USA, phone (626) 338-0035, fax (626) 338-7113, [email protected] 1 On July 14, 2004, the bridge was added to the National Register for Historic Places under both Criterion A and C for its significance in transportation history and embodiment of distinguishing features of a Neoclassical bridge design and reflection of the City Beautiful movement in Pasadena.

Anapamu Street, Suite 204A Santa Barbara, California 93101 MARCH 2018 FINAL FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT FOR JET PROPULSION LABORATORY PERIODIC SCIENTIFIC DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING ACTIVITIES ON-SITE AND IN THE ARROYO SECO 1.0 INTRODUCTION Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended (42 U.S. Code [USC] 4321, et seq.), the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) Regulations for Implementing the Procedural Provisions of NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] Parts 1500-1508), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) policy and procedures (14 CFR Part 1216, Subpart 1216.3), NASA has made a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) with respect to the proposed JPL Periodic Scientific Development and Testing Activities On-Site and in the Arroyo Seco. NASA has reviewed the Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) prepared for the proposed periodic scientific development and testing activities and determined that it presents an accurate and adequate analysis of the scope and level of associated environmental impacts. NASA hereby incorporates the PEA by reference in this FONSI. The PEA programmatically assesses environmental impacts associated with a suite of outdoor scientific development and testing activities at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) on-site and within other appropriate landscapes in close proximity to NASA JPL, including the adjacent Arroyo Seco. These outdoor testing actions are small-scale, non-intrusive, short-duration outdoor testing, verification, and calibration activities, and are necessary to support and fulfill NASA scientific and technology demonstration missions as well as tasks conducted by NASA JPL under technology development agreement with other Federal agencies.
