First, the majority of the themes and property types significant in military history in Los Angeles are covered under other contexts and themes of the citywide historic context statement as indicated in the “Introduction” below. Second, many of the city’s military resources are already designated City Historic-Cultural Monuments and/or are listed in the National Register.1 Finally, with the exception of air raid sirens, a small number of military-related resources were identified as part of SurveyLA and, as such, did not merit development of full narrative themes and eligibility standards.

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.

  • 3.4 Cultural Resources
    3.4 1 CULTURAL RESOURCES 2 3.4.1 Introduction 3 This section describes the affected environment and regulatory setting for cultural 4 resources, as well as the impacts on cultural resources that would result from the 5 proposed Project and its alternatives, and the mitigation measures that would reduce 6 these impacts. Cultural resources customarily include archaeological resources, 7 ethnographic resources, and those of the historical built environment (architectural 8 resources). Though not specifically a cultural resource, paleontological resources 9 (fossils pre-dating human occupation) are considered here because they are discussed 10 in Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines (Environmental Checklist Form), in the 11 context of Section V, Cultural Resources. A paleontological technical report was 12 prepared for this project by Michael X. Kirby and Thomas A. Deméré of the 13 Department of PaleoServices at the San Diego Natural History Museum, San Diego, 14 California, and is attached as Appendix F.1 to this document. Information pertaining 15 to prehistoric and historical archaeological resources is based in part upon the 16 archaeological resources study conducted by ICF Jones & Stokes that is attached as 17 Appendix F.2 to this document. Additionally, a technical report for the historical 18 built environment (architectural resources) is attached as Appendix F.3 to this 19 document. 20 CEQA Guidelines Section 15120(d) prohibits an EIR from including information 21 about the location of archaeological sites or sacred lands: “No document prepared 22 pursuant to this article that is available for public examination shall include… 23 information about the location of archaeological sites and sacred lands.” Therefore, 24 the specific locations of archaeological sites have been omitted from this chapter and 25 the cultural resources technical reports are a confidential appendix to this document.
