  • The White City by Miles Clements the RUINS of the Echo Mountain
    The White City by Miles Clements THE RUINS of the Echo Mountain House appear like a low-budget Machu Picchu wrapped in smog, like a run-down Hollywood stand-in for some lost civilization. The building’s stone base, now crumbling into the mountain’s topsoil, traces the outline of the spot where the elaborate Victorian hotel once stood. In place of its seventy grand rooms are patches of overgrown chaparral and a pair of scorched pines. Sagebrush lizards dash through what was once the ornate lobby while a bluebird flies circles in the sky. At the site of the ruined structure, day hikers come and go. Some sit on the remaining tracks of the Mount Lowe Railway, taking in the obscured vistas of the Los Angeles basin and the San Gabriel Valley. Others, more intent on exploration, head to the strategically placed “Echophones” and shout into the megaphone-like devices, waiting for their voices to careen off the canyon walls. As the hikers’ yells slowly fade into the mountainside, a family of six ascends the granite staircase leading to the Echo Mountain House. They mill about the former chateau, taking pictures and eating granola bars. But after about fifteen minutes and a few swigs of water, the mother, donning a green Nike sweatshirt, corrals the family back into a small cluster. Walking past graffiti-covered plaques and huge, rusting railroad equipment, they head down the mountain and pack into their minivan, leaving their brief contact with the Echo Mountain House behind, surely taking only a few scant memories with them on their way back to the stucco houses and well-maintained lawns of Los Angeles’ suburbs.

  • March 93 Second Section
    Second Section Member Charles G. Seims writes; I enjoyed Ralph Cantos' article on trolleys in Hollywood motion pictures. While Ralph dealt mainly with short comedies, I’d like to point out that there are many traction scenes in the early full length features, and due to the proliferation of cable TV channels such as TNT and AMC, films are being shown that have not been out of the can for fifty years or more. Worthy of mention are the following three “traction classics” because they have all been on American Movie Classics in the last few months and are likely to be repeated: CAUGHT PLASTERED, Wheeler & Woolsey (1931)-- The stars are a vaudeville comedy team that are usually hilarious in a corny sort of way. In this early talkie they befriend an old lady and save her drugstore from being taken over by bootlegging gangsters. A fun plot and a long sequence shot inside an LARy car on West Pico Boulevard makes this a film to stay up late for. MUSIC IS MAGIC, Alice Faye, (1935)--There’s only one thing to recommend this turkey of a musical-- one of many coming-to-Hollywood films of the thirties. Alice Faye turns in her usual lackluster performance, and unfortunately there’s not a memorable song in the whole film. Comic relief, such as it is, is provided by the team of Mitchell and Durant (I don’t know if this is a play on the names of the General Motors’ executives). When they can’t get a job in motion pictures (not surprising given their obvious lack of talent) the boys take a job with the Pacific Electric, and naturally make a mess of things.

    GC 1121 Mount Lowe Collection Repository: Seaver Center for Western History Research, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Span Dates: 1893-1934 Extent: Boxes: 1 letter, 2 ov. Related Collection(s): P-172: Mt Lowe Collection Language: English Abstract: In 1891, David MacPherson and Thaddeus Lowe ran electric trolley cars through Altadena into Rubio Canyon. "The Great Incline," was California's first electric cable hoisting mechanism. It traveled 1/2 mile to Echo Mountain summit where Lowe built a powerhouse, Chalet, the Echo Mountain House, a casino (used as a dance pavilion and dormitory), an observatory, residential car barn, gardens, gas holder, zoo and water system. "The White City on the Mountain" was world famous. Henry Huntington (Pacific Electric Railway System) bought the railway in 1901, and ”Red Cars" ran from Los Angeles to Rubio Canyon. For the next 30 years, the Mt. Lowe Line was Southern California's favorite, scenic railway line. A windstorm in 1928 and a fire in 1936 destroyed much of the amenities at the top of the run. Although Pacific Electric weighed restoring the amenities, the Depression destined the end of the line. This collection includes Mount Lowe news publications and other ephemera.
