These three tours still take place regularly: Pershing Square Landmarks (now Historic Downtown), Broadway Historic Theatre District (now Broadway Theatre and Commercial District), and Palaces of Finance (now Downtown Renaissance). In the years since Would You Believe L.A.? was created and the first walking tours began, downtown Los Angeles has undergone many changes.

  • Angels Flight, Built in 1901, Was Originally Called the Los Angeles Incline Railway. Promoted As “The World's Shortest Rail
    Rain Shadow ANGELS FLIGHT Angels Flight, built in 1901, was originally called the Los Angeles Incline Railway. Promoted as “The World’s Shortest Railway,” it ran two blocks from the corner of Hill Street and Third Street to Olive Street above—one of the steepest slopes in Los Angeles. Angels Flight is a funicular, which means the passenger cars not only ride on rails, but are connected to each other by cable so that they counterbalance each other as one ascends and the other descends. Rain Shadow PAYDAY Payday saw aqueduct workers lining up, then leaving “quicker than liquor” to get to the nearest saloon—many to spend every dollar they’d earned. Although Mulholland disapproved of this behavior, he acknowledged that “No man will do the hard, hazard- filled work of driving tunnels or skinning mules through canyons, while putting up with the blistering heat, biting cold and dust storms, without some relief.” This demand fueled enterprise. Fly-by-night establishments—many selling poor-quality whiskey— proliferated along the aqueduct route. Finally, when incidents of drunken brawling reached fearful levels, the state legislature passed a bill banning saloons within four miles of the construction sites. That closed down some 30 establishments, but others continued to operate outside of the periphery. Photo courtesy County of Inyo, Eastern California Museum Background photo courtesy Library of Congress Rain Shadow ALABAMA GATES OCCUPATION The Alabama Gates occupation involved as many as 700 Owens Valley citizens, who left their farms and shops to demonstrate opposition to what they saw as the increasing stran- glehold on the valley by Los Angeles.

  • GC 1323 Historic Sites Surveys Repository
    GC 1323 Historic Sites Surveys Repository: Seaver Center for Western History Research, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Span Dates: 1974-1996, bulk 1974-1978 Conditions Governing Use: Permission to publish, quote or reproduce must be secured from the repository and the copyright holder Conditions Governing Access: Research is by appointment only Source: Surveys were compiled by Tom Sitton, former Head of History Department, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Background: In 1973, the History Department of the Natural History Museum was selected to conduct surveys of Los Angeles County historic sites as part of a statewide project funded through the National Preservation Act of 1966. Tom Sitton was appointed project facilitator in 1974 and worked with various historical societies to complete survey forms. From 1976 to 1977, the museum project operated through a grant awarded by the state Office of Historic Preservation, which allowed the hiring of three graduate students for the completion of 500 surveys, taking site photographs, as well as to help write eighteen nominations for the National Register of Historic Places (three of which were historic districts). The project concluded in 1978. Preferred Citation: Historic Sites Surveys, Seaver Center for Western History Research, Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Special Formats: Photographs Scope and Content: The Los Angeles County historic site surveys were conducted from 1974 through 1978. Compilation of data for historic sites continued beyond 1978 until approximately 1996, by way of Sitton's efforts to add application sheets prepared for National Register of Historic Places nominations. These application forms provide a breadth of information to supplement the data found on the original survey forms.

SUBJECT: NOTICE OF INTENT (NOI)/NOTICE OF PREPARATION (NOP) OF AN EIS/EIR PROJECT TITLE: REGIONAL CONNECTOR TRANSIT CORRIDOR PROJECT PROJECT LOCATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING: The proposed light rail transit (LRT) project lies entirely within the City of Los Angeles and is generally bounded by US Highway 101 on the north, 7th and 9th Streets on the south, Alameda Street on the east, and State Route 110 on the west. The length of the proposed light rail project would be just under two miles. It would have up to four stations plus ancillary facilities including power substations. The project area includes the largest regional employment center of Los Angeles, and is densely developed with multi-family residences, industrial and public lands, commercial and retail establishments, government office buildings, and private high-rise office towers. The proposed Regional Connector would provide a direct link connecting several light rail lines in operation or in construction, including the Metro Gold Line to Pasadena, the Metro Gold Line Eastside Extension, the Metro Blue Line, and the Metro Expo Line. The proposed project would create a connection through downtown Los Angeles that would link the Metro Blue and Expo Lines termini at 7th Street/Metro Center Station (7th Street and Flower Street) to the Metro Gold 1 Line (Pasadena and Eastside) at the Little Tokyo/Arts District Station at 1st Street and Alameda Street.
