Art, Design & Architecture Museum; University of California, Santa Barbara Biographical/Historical note Edward Abel Killingsworth was born in Taft, California in 1917. He attended the University of Southern California where he began his academic career studying painting but after a year, decided to switch his course of study to architecture. Killingsworth graduated cum laude with a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture in 1940. He served in WWII as a Captain in the Army Corps of Engineers where he supervised the production of more than 8 million photo-maps in preparation of the allied invasion of Europe. After being discharged from the military in 1946, Killingsworth got a job as a draftsman at the Kenneth S. Wing architectural firm, a job he kept until 1953. In 1953, Killingsworth partnered with Jules Brady and Waugh Smith to form Killingsworth, Brady and Smith Associates. The firm designed Case Study House 25 also known as the Frank House, the Richard Opdahl House, and Case Study House 23 also known as the Triad. Killingsworth, Brady and Smith Associates dissolved in 1962. In 1963, Killingsworth continued his partnership with Brady as Killingsworth, Brady and Associates. Then in 1984 Killingsworth became a partner in Killingsworth, Stricker, Lindgren, Wilson and Associate Incorporated. Over his career, Killingsworth won over 42 American Institute of Architects awards. His projects became known for their tall doors, glass walls, association with exterior planting, and the integration of his buildings with the environment. As time progressed Killingsworth’s projects grew in size from residential buildings in Southern California to luxury hotels in Hawaii, Guam, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia and Indonesia. He served as the master planning architect for California State Long beach for more than 40 years. Edward A. Killingsworth died on July 6, 2004, at the age of 86. Scope and Content note The Edward A.

  • 5.7 Cultural Resources
    City of Long Beach Shoreline Gateway Project Environmental Impact Report 5.7 CULTURAL RESOURCES The purpose of this section is to identify historic, archaeological and paleontological resources existing in the project area and to assess the significance of such resources. The analysis in this section has been prepared in accordance with Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines, which considers potential impacts on prehistoric and historic resources. This section is based upon the information contained in the Historic-Period Building Survey conducted by CRM Tech (June 2006) and the Revised Historic Resources Survey Report prepared by Sapphos Environmental, Inc. (August 2006), which is included in Appendix 15.6, Historical Resources Survey Reports. 5.7.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING Between August 2005 and June 2006, CRM Tech performed a historical resources survey for the proposed Shoreline Gateway Project. The boundaries of the project encompass portions of two fully urbanized city blocks located on the north side of Ocean Boulevard between Atlantic Avenue and Alamitos Avenue, on the eastern edge of the city’s downtown area. In consideration of the project’s potential for visual, atmospheric, and other indirect effects, the study area for the survey also includes properties of potential historic significance that are located adjacent to the project boundaries. In all, the entire study area extends from the west side of Atlantic Avenue to the east side of Alamitos Avenue, straddling both sides of Ocean Boulevard. It lies across the boundary between the Rancho Los Cerritos and Rancho Los Alamitos land grants, in what would be Section 6 of T5S R13W, San Bernardino Base Meridian.

  • Are Retailing Mergers Anticompetitive? an Event Study Analysis
    Are Retailing Mergers Anticompetitive? An Event Study Analysis Abstract We examine the abnormal returns of rival firms to determine whether four retailing mergers that occurred during the late 1980s reduced competition. We use the stock returns of retailers in geographic markets unaffected by the merger to control for the efficiency-signaling effect of the merger. Using this methodology, we find that rival firms experienced positive abnormal returns from May Company’s 1986 acquisition of Associated Dry Goods and American Stores’ 1988 acquisition of Lucky Stores. These results offer some evidence that retailing mergers that lead to large increases in concentration in already concentrated markets may lessen competition and lead to higher product market prices. John David Simpson Federal Trade Commission and Daniel Hosken Federal Trade Commission January 1998 I) Introduction Antitrust enforcement of retailing mergers has varied over time. In the 1960s, the antitrust agencies and the courts pursued a very aggressive antitrust policy. For example, the Supreme Court blocked a 1960 merger between Von’s Grocery and Shopping Bag Food Stores that would have given the merged firm a 7.5 percent share of the grocery retailing business in Los Angeles.1 In contrast, the antitrust agencies followed a much more relaxed antitrust policy in the 1980s. For instance, the Federal Trade Commission did not challenge May Department Stores Company’s 1986 acquisition of Associated Dry Goods which would have given the combined firm control of nearly all of the traditional department stores in the Pittsburgh area.2 More recently, the antitrust agencies and the courts have adopted a more moderate position with respect to retailing mergers.
