In addition to the first and second floors, there is a spacious attic making a third story and a full basement. The entire structure is wood, and the basement is so well constructed that in the 116 years since it was ' completed (1864-1970) there has been remarkably little deterioration. The interiors are high-ceilinged; most of the rooms have fireplaces. The gabled and shingled roof is surmounted with a cupola. The attic alone contains four rooms, a hallway and two large storage areas. The basement contains a 46 * x 56* ballroom, a refreshment room, and rn several household service rooms.

The Banning Home was built circa 1863-1864 and was far and away the largest and most impressive structure built in the harbor district. U It is interesting to note that the Banning Home was built during the Civil War when labor was scarce. Historical accounts say that Banning would greet ships when they came into port and pursuade shipwrights from the many clipper ships to spend their CO shore leaves working on the construction of his mansion.

  • Lincoln, Olmsted, and Yosemite: Time for a Closer Look
    Lincoln, Olmsted, and Yosemite: Time for a Closer Look This year is the 150th anniversary of the Yosemite Grant and the act of Congress that set aside Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Big Tree Grove for “public use, resort, and rec- reation … inalienable for all time.” This “grant” of federal lands transferred Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Grove to the state of California, yet the 1864 Yosemite Act represents the first significant reservation of public land by the Congress of the United States—to be pre- served in perpetuity for the benefit of the entire nation. As Joseph Sax affirms, “The national parks were born at that moment.”1 In 1890, Congress incorporated Yosemite State Park into a much larger Yosemite National Park. The Yosemite Conservancy is marking the 150th anniversary of the Yosemite Grant by releasing a new publication, Seed of the Future: Yosemite and the Evolution of the Nation­ al Park Idea, authored by the writer and filmmaker Dayton Duncan.2 The handsomely de- signed and generously illustrated book revisits the Yosemite Grant and the “evolution of the national park idea” and should attract a wide readership. This message is important, as the national significance of the Yosemite story has been obscured by time, incomplete documen- tation, and often-contradictory interpretations. A clearer understanding of the people and events surrounding the Yosemite Grant, in such a popular format, is particularly timely, not only for the celebration of Yosemite’s sesquicentennial, but also for the approaching 100th anniversary of the National Park Service (NPS) in 2016. It should be pointed out that Duncan is not the first recognize the significance of the Yosemite Grant.

Refer to www.HistoricPlacesLA.org for information on designated resources associated with this context as well as those identified through SurveyLA and other surveys. CONTRIBUTOR Daniel Prosser is a historian and preservation architect. He holds an M.Arch. from Ohio State University and a Ph.D. in history from Northwestern University. Before retiring, Prosser was the Historic Sites Architect for the Kansas State Historical Society. INTRODUCTION The “Pre-Consolidation Communities of Los Angeles” context examines those communities that were at one time independent, self-governing cities. These include (presented here as themes): Wilmington, San Pedro, Hollywood, Sawtelle, Eagle Rock, Hyde Park, Venice, Watts, Barnes City, and Tujunga. This context traces the history of each of these cities (up to the point of consolidation with the City of Los Angeles), identifying important individuals and patterns of settlement and development, and then links the events and individuals to extant historic resources (individual resources and historic districts).
