Malibu 90265 Introduction
Malibu 90265 Introduction by Taylor Coffman FROM THE SANTA MONICA PIER, it’s a six-mile drive up Pacific Coast Highway to Tuna Canyon Road. Not far along this northwest-to- westerly route lies the site of the Beach House, as William Randolph Hearst and Marion Davies called their grand mansion of the 1920s and ’30s, once the film colony’s most palatial home. Past that, in Pacific Palisades, lies the Bel-Air Bay Club; and then PCH reaches Sunset Boulevard, the world’s only street so-named. On the ocean side is the fish restaurant known as Gladstone’s Malibu. But it’s a false start: the border of that famous town lies almost a mile ahead still. Thelma Todd’s house and the section of Pacific Palisades called Castellammare are next; tucked away nearby, invisible from the main road, is the Getty Villa (J. Paul Getty greatly admired Hearst). Then comes the more working-class enclave of Sunset Mesa, or Parker Mesa. Right past it is the last part of what, overall, amounts to outlying Los Angeles and its coveted Westside, namely, the place where Topanga Canyon Boulevard reaches Topanga State Beach, once a Bohemian seaside haunt but now a bittersweet memory. Go another half mile, past the City of Malibu sign, and watch for a larger sign next to Tuna Canyon Road. It announces “Malibu 27 Miles of Scenic Beauty.” Years ago, in this same spirit of local pride, the old Malibu Township was often said to extend for twenty-six miles. In reality, twenty-nine miles (and even closer to thirty) is more like it in embracing the total Malibu coastline, the long shorefront of what I like to call greater Malibu, the storied land of postal ZIP code 90265. -

The Influence of the Los Angeles “Oligarchy” on the Governance of the Municipal Water Department, 1902- 1930: A Business Like Any Other or a Public Service? Fionn MacKillop The municipalization of the water service in Los Angeles (LA) in 1902 was the result of a (mostly implicit) compromise between the city’s political, social, and economic elites. The economic elite (the “oligarchy”) accepted municipalizing the water service, and helped Progressive politicians and citizens put an end to the private LA City Water Co., a corporation whose obsession with financial profitability led to under-investment and the construction of a network relatively modest in scope and efficiency. -

The Art of Ancient Greek Theater LOS ANGELES—The Art of Ancient
DATE: June 9, 2010 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GETTY MUSEUM EXHIBITION FOCUSES ON THE REPRESENTATION OF THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE IN ANCIENT GREECE The Art of Ancient Greek Theater At the J. Paul Getty Museum, the Getty Villa August 26, 2010–January 3, 2011 Mixing Vessel with Dionysos and Comic Actors, Greek, About 390 – 380 B.C., Red-figured volute krater attributed to the Pronomos Painter. Terracotta. Lent by the Cleveland Museum of Art, John L. Severance Fund. LOS ANGELES—The Art of Ancient Greek Theater, on view at the Getty Villa from August 26, 2010 – January 3, 2011, is the first exhibition in the United States in over fifty years to focus on the artistic representation of theatrical performance in ancient Greece. Assembling international loans of antiquities from many museums and private collections, the exhibition illustrates the ways in which dramatic performance was depicted in the visual arts of ancient Greece between the fifth and the first centuries B.C. The exhibition is being presented in conjunction with the Getty Villa’s annual outdoor theater performance, Sophocles’ Elektra. “Ancient art and theater share a strong and enduring connection–one that is inspired by mythology and the social, cultural, and political realities of life in ancient Greece and Rome,” says David Bomford, acting director of the J. Paul Getty Museum. “With this exhibition and our annual production in the outdoor theater, we are delighted to bring ancient theater alive at the Getty Villa and invite our visitors to join us and discover how those themes found in ancient times persist today.” -more- Page 2 The Art of Ancient Greek Theater spans centuries of artistic production throughout the cities of the Mediterranean. -

San Diego's Mid-Century Modern Marvels
SAVE OUR HERITAGE ORGANISATION PRESENTS SAN DIEGO’S MID-CENTURY MODERN MARVELS INTRODUCTION As we advance into the 2020s, 20th-century Modern architecture is having a renaissance. Not only is the style rising in popularity, but Mid-Century designs are reaching a level of maturity that qualifies many for historic designation and a higher level of recognition and importance. This self-guided driving tour will take you from North Park, Mission Valley, and Hillcrest to the coast with stops in Point Loma, Shelter Island, and La Jolla to see some of San Diego’s most marvelous Mid-Century Modern buildings. Built from the years 1949 to 1977, the movement’s end in the 1970s, these designs showcase the work of many of San Diego’s leading Modernist architects, including Lloyd Ruocco, Robert Mosher, and William Krisel. While this tour is limited to public buildings and represents only a dozen of the Mid-Century sites worthy of recognition and study, we hope it offers a taste of the diversity of Mid-Century Modern designs and their place in San Diego’s development. MAP Click below on this image to be redirected to an interactive Google Map that will help guide you to each of the 12 sites on the tour. 1. Rudford’s Restaurant, 1949 Photos by Sandé Lollis Photo by James Daigh 2900 El Cajon Boulevard A signature El Cajon Boulevard landmark, Rudford’s Restaurant has been in operation since 1949. The sleek modern design features oval porthole style windows and original neon signage. El Cajon Boulevard is historically significant as a commercial strip known for its neon, and Rudford’s is a key example of this mid-century neighborhood development.
