History

The written history of the Redondo Beach area begins in 1542 when Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo discovered the beautiful, sweeping Santa Monica bay where it remained an Indian Village for more than 200 years. As part of the 43,000 acre Dominguez Rancho Spanish land grant of 1784, Redondo Beach was a rich farming and grazing area until the late 1800's. Incorporated on April 29,1892, the City was already well served by rail and steamship lines. The lumber and shipping industries preceded the Pacific Electric's Big Red car Line, which contributed to Redondo Beach's reputation as a resort and recreation area. The opening of the Port of Los Angeles in San pedro ended the city's shipping trade and slow growth continued during the Great Depression and through World War II. During the 1950's through today, Redondo Beach has become known as a great place to live, work and play. Redondo Beach is a thriving city of 65,000 in one of the most desireable Southern California areas. Excellent schools and churches, a wide variety of shopping opportunities, a wealth of recreational activities in a moderate seaside climate combine to make Redondo Beach a great place, for a day -- or a lifetime!
