Speaking of Sigourney... Her grandfather built 87 Fremont Place in 1923. Here's a history of the house and her interesting family: https://bit.ly/3dLcln7 (Remember Sigourney's Uncle Doodles?) https://i.postimg.cc/MThv9QFP/FP87-M...FB-bmp-003.jpg |

We also have a Red Rock Canyon here in California(north of Mojave), a great location for landscape astrophotographer refugees from LA's light pollution. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...8ac66676_b.jpg_503_Redrock_StarTrails_A18_NoLP.jpg by BillinGlendaleCA, on Flickr |
This was on Fine Art America:
Zuma Beach Food Stand and Lifeguard Tower is a photograph by Richard Cheski which was uploaded on April 28th, 2014. https://images.fineartamerica.com/im...ard-cheski.jpg The FOOD sign is somewhat different looking, but there's a lifeguard tower and a circle, center bottom, where that palm tree was located. |

RE:...Zuma Beach. Does anyone know if this 1959 development was ever built? https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...923/NoGY2i.jpg pepperdine archive I checked this recent aerial and it's difficult to tell. The billboard says "Unit #2 Now Selling". . .so at least two units were built. . |
There's a Horizon Dr in Malibu. I'm not sure if it's the same development.

Thanks, badrunner. I'll have to check it out.

According to remax.com, the Horizon Hills neighborhood is centered around Horizon Drive (as mentioned by badrunner). I've marked Remax's perimeter on the aerial below. https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds Google Maps It's a private road, but until a few years ago you could've seen this sign at the entrance. It looks like there was a fire there at some point since 2015, because the latest GSV image shows a crude, handmade sign just saying "Horizon". https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds GSV |
.
A closer look at the Horizon Hills billboard. ....Did anyone wonder what the small sign was all about? https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/MahK5Q.jpg detail Here's your answer: The small "Vote No on 29" sign refers to "A September 1959 election to expand water service to Malibu through the establishment of Los Angeles County Waterworks District 29 for Malibu and Topanga." ....pepperdine The motion would pass. odinthor just sent me this panorama showing the view from Horizon Hills. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/iVmT0T.jpg GSV The view is much better than I imagined. . |

A job worse than an elevator operator? I don't believe we have seen the "Dippsy-Doodle" amusement ride on nla. "Amusement park in Venice, Los Angeles, California, April 1942." https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...923/YTlKJj.jpg vintageeveryday This is a great photograph. I like the people milling about in the forground. . .the man eating caramel corn. . .the baby looking at the photographer. One thing, in particular, caught my eye. . .if you look closely, the ride operator is on the ride! (he's in the middle of the orb) He must be manipulating some sort of a spinning mechanism. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...923/ervjiP.jpg detail I imagine when he goes home at night it feels like his bedroom is spinning! :eeekk: . |

Horrendous fires there two years ago in November, 2018. Some photos of animals being rushed to the beach near that "Food Stand" and Lifeguard tower: Alpacas Find Refuge on Zuma Beach During California Fires --People Magazine / LINK https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/d...0hv-snap-image https://attachments.priuschat.com/at...2_IMG_0652.jpgPriusChat https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DrmEq-DU...jpg&name=largeBrittnyMejia/LAT The fires jumped PCH onto the beach. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DrneqxHU...jpg&name=smallDailyCaller Terrible fires...I believe this fire was called the Woolsey Fire and encompassed a huge area right down to the ocean as you can see by this huge MAP: https://imagesvc.meredithcorp.io/v3/...map-1-2000.jpg |
