Stock#: 48538 Map Maker: Southern Pacific Railroad Company Date: 1910 circa Place: n.p. Color: Condition: VG- Size: 31 x 65 inches Price: SOLD Description: Fine early map of Terminal Island, in San Pedro California, drawn for the Southern Pacific Railroad. The map illustrates Terminal Island at the beginning of its modern history, before the island was substantially reshaped and modified by dredging and reclamation projects that created the modern harbors at San Pedro and Long Beach. The map show the City of San Pedro at the right, with the lines of the Southern Pacific. Below, a line identified as Los Angeles Terminal Railway traverses Terminal Island, with a railway station, Hotel Site, Mill, Lumber Yard and Coal Yard shown, along with several wharfs. The location of the Catalina Yacht club is also noted (constructed in 1898). The map shows Morman (Mormon) Island and Smith Island, both of which have also been dramatically reshaped by modern port projects. Mormon Island was the site of an short-lived settlement attempt by San Bernardino-based Mormon pioneers in the 1850s. Terminal Island The island was originally called Isla Raza de Buena Gente and later Rattlesnake Island. It was renamed Terminal Island in 1891. In 1891, the Terminal Land Company purchased the island and a railway was built on to its east side by the Los Angeles Terminal Railroad Company. -
Synopsis in Pdf Format
FURUSATO - The Lost Village of Terminal Island Those who came of age during World War II have been called “The Greatest Generation”. On Terminal Island, California this generation is known as the ‘Nisei’ – or second generation Japanese, the American-born sons and daughters of immigrant parents. On the southern edge of the Port of Los Angeles, this isolated village offered a unique childhood experience. More than 3000 residents lived in a very small area known as Fish Harbor in San Pedro, 99% of whom were Japanese or Japanese American. While their parents worked as fishermen or cannery workers, the Nisei’s memory of Terminal Island is as an idyllic place, where they were often allowed to roam free, share dinner at a friend’s house, or dive for abalone near the beach. The culture of Japan was everywhere, from the Shinto Shrine to the Japanese Fisherman’s Hall where Kendo and Judo were taught. Physically and culturally isolated, the residents developed a unique dialect which combined Japanese and English – often in ways that were confusing to outsiders who spoke one or the other. The Terminal Island ‘lingo’ was symbolic of their status in California, accepted by neither the majority culture nor by other Japanese, the Terminal Islanders came to refer to themselves as ‘Yogores’ – dark and dirty on the outside, but pure and clean of heart within. As the Nisei grew older, they attended San Pedro High School and began to share American traditions with their Issei parents. Baseball games became a weekly event, sponsored by village businesses and fishermen. -

FORM GEN. 160 CITY OF LOS ANGELES INTER-DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE Date: August 27, 2015 To: Municipal Facilities Committee Attn: Miguel A. Santana, Chair From: Josh Rohmer, Principal Project Coordinator qj— Asset Management Strategic Planning Unit Subject: SAN PEDRO WATERFONT MARKET FEASIBILITY STUDY This report recommends funding for a Real Estate and Market Feasibility Study to explore potential re-use options for publicly-owned properties in San Pedro and Wilmington. Background The San Pedro Waterfront is the site of significant new public and private investments which together have the potential to transform the area into a regional destination and a hub of economic activity. Catalytic projects include AltaSea, the adaptive re-use of a 28- acre site into a 400,000 square foot research and innovation facility focused on marine technology, redevelopment of the Ports o’ Call Village entertainment and retail facility with as much as 375,000 square feet of retail, restaurant, and conference space, and the Harbor Department’s extensive, ongoing capital improvement program including an upgraded Cabrillo Marina, Crafted at the Port, the Downtown Harbor, and numerous parks and public access improvements. On January 28, 2015, Council directed the Harbor Department and the Economic and Workforce Development Department (EWDD) to retain a consultant to conduct a Real Estate and Market Feasibility Study for publicly owned sites in the area to evaluate potential redevelopment opportunities (C.F. 14-1330). EWDD requested bids from the list of Asset Management Strategic Planning prequalified consultants. A City evaluation panel reviewed the three proposals received and selected Economic and Planning Systems as the most responsive bidder. -

APPENDIX C Aesthetics and Visual Resources: Sensitive Public Views of the PMPU Area
APPENDIX C Aesthetics and Visual Resources: Sensitive Public Views of the PMPU Area 1 Critical views for impact evaluations conducted for aesthetics and visual resources, as addressed in 2 Section 3.1, Aesthetics and Visual Resources, are defined as those sensitive public views that would be 3 most affected by a proposed action, such as the greatest intensity of impact due to viewer proximity to a 4 project, the project’s visibility, and the duration of the affected view. The analyses are based on “worst- 5 case” circumstances of maximum proposed Program exposure to the most sensitive public views. It is a 6 premise of the technical approach that the range of critical public views potentially affected by the 7 proposed Program should be represented by the views chosen for analysis. This appendix presents an 8 initial consideration of sensitive public views of the PMPU area which are critical to the assessment of 9 impacts on aesthetics and visual resources within this area. 10 The region of influence for the aesthetics/visual resources impact analysis includes the Port, the Port of 11 Long Beach, and sensitive land uses near these ports (e.g., parks, beaches, tourist facilities, and residential 12 areas). Communities within the region include San Pedro, Rancho Palos Verdes, Wilmington, and Long 13 Beach. These points are located on all but the east side of the PMPU area. The sections below describe 14 views from all potentially critical view areas relative to the PMPU area, with the list of views most 15 relevant to impact evaluations for the PEIR representing a subset of all areas, as presented in Section 16 3.1.2.2, PMPU Area.
