INTRODUCTION Torrance has long recognized the original, historic core of the city as an important part of its identity. Now known as the Torrance Tract (also as the Old Torrance Tract or Olmsted Tract), the city’s core was developed by Jared Sidney Torrance in the early twentieth century as a planned company town for the oil industry (Figure 1). To lay out the town, Mr. Torrance retained the famed Olmsted Brothers, sons of master landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. The Olmsted Brothers’ plan divided the approximately one square mile area into three districts, creating an area for industry, an area for commercial uses, and an area for housing defined by a central green. The new town was well connected to the greater Los Angeles region by railroad and streetcar lines. The Pacific Electric streetcar line carried people and goods to and from Torrance with arrival into town punctuated by Torrance’s signature arched bridge, designed by noted Southern California architect Irving Gill (Figure 2). Figure 1: Brochure map showing the planned residential and commercial areas surrounded by industry. Source: Torrance, The Modern Industrial City, 1913. May 2018 - 1 - Torrance Tract Final Historic Preservation Plan Over time, the industrial uses found within the Torrance Tract have evolved and while many of the commercial businesses and buildings have come and gone, the residential areas have remained remarkably constant. Primarily developed between 1912 and 1945, the housing stock ranges from grand houses lining Post Avenue and the El Prado central green to modest cottages, bungalows, and apartment. The pre-World War II neighborhood character can still be seen and felt through original built features: buildings, streets, and landscapes. Since the 1970s and 1980s, Torrance has approached protecting the unique character of the Torrance Tract’s residential areas in mostly informal, voluntary ways. Demolition of older homes that contributed to the tract’s character was discouraged, but not prevented. Though new development of properties was encouraged to be sensitive-- to the street pattern, setbacks, and scale of the surrounding neighborhood-- compatibility with the community’s physical character was not required. On some blocks, accumulated changes over time have created an inconsistent mix within the streetscape; on other blocks, the sense of an early twentieth century neighborhood has already been lost. A survey of the Torrance Tract conducted by the Torrance Historical Society between 2013 and 2014 documented where Figure 2: Pacific Electric Railroad Bridge relatively unaltered pre-1945 homes remained, but also where designed by Irving Gill, as seen in 1988. they no longer exist. Source: National Register of Historic Places nomination. May 2018 - 2 - Torrance Tract Final Historic Preservation Plan In response to the Torrance Historical Society’s survey results, and to address development pressures, the Torrance City Council enacted a temporary Torrance Tract Overlay Zone in March 2016 that became permanent in December 2017. As a planning tool, the Torrance Tract Overlay Zone extended an existing Planning Commission review process long used in one portion of the Torrance Tract to about 850 relatively unaltered, pre-1945 residential properties throughout the Torrance Tract boundaries. The overlay zone covers the area bounded by Dominguez Street to the north, Western Avenue to the east, Plaza del Amo to the south and Crenshaw Boulevard to the west (Figure 3). At the same time, City Council initiated efforts to establish a historic preservation ordinance to formally recognize and protect historic buildings and historic districts. The preservation ordinance offers those who own historic buildings, or live in an area where there is a concentration of historic buildings, a more proactive and direct tool to manage change. This Torrance Tract Preservation Plan is intended to guide property owners, community members, Figure 3: Boundary of Torrance Tract and the city’s decision makers in using the historic preservation Overlay Zone, outlined in orange.

Executive Summary Introduction he majority of Torrance schools are over a half-century-old. After decades of use by hundreds of thousands of Torrance school children, our school facilities are dilapidated and in dire need of repair and modernization. Many of our schools pose safety concerns, such as large cracks in the asphalt and concrete surfaces of elementary and middle school Tplaygrounds, toilets that often back up because of old plumbing, nonexistent outdoor lighting in school hallways and other common walkways, potholes in playfields, and rotting wood high school stadium bleachers. School children and staff shiver in unheated classrooms when antiquated boiler heaters frequently break down. Student computer equipment overload outdated electrical circuits.

  • Gina Wisker Vampires and School Girls: High School Jinks on the Hellmouth
    Gina Wisker Vampires and School Girls: High School Jinks on the Hellmouth Joyce: "Well it stops now!" Buffy: "No, it doesn't stop. It never stops. Do you think I chose to be like this? Do you have any idea how lonely it is? How dangerous? I would love to be upstairs watching TV or gossiping about boys or, god, even studying! But I have to save the world. Again. (“Becoming,” Part II, 2022) Introduction (1) Buffy The Vampire Slayer treads an entertaining if uneasy course between conservatism and contemporary feminist girl power. On the one hand the weekly successful tackling of monsters emerging from the hell mouth denotes a conservative underwriting of the certainties of the American Dream's superheroes— that wrong can be righted, quests can succeed: evil is visible, tangible and destructible. On the other hand, Buffy, ostensibly physically more suited to be a prom queen or a cheer leader, and a bit of an American Beauty, is a feisty example of late twentieth-century/early twenty-first century girl power. Buffy possesses the energies of the New Woman, the mid-century tomboy of girls' comics, “Supergirl,” teen heroines. She is a girl with a mission, and a manager/mentor (Giles, who provides the academic references), a girl with a team of friends who support her on her missions to sort things out, to dismember and dismantle the latest monstrous emergent from the Hellmouth. (2) But as a slayer she is herself on the edge, “Other” in her powers, irritated at their intrusion into teenage life, dedicated to her mission, yet in love with a vampire, Angel, who loses his soul when he sleeps with her.
