Torrance Historical Society & Museum, 1345 Post Ave., Old Torrance
|

Since the month of May is National Preservation Month, the Torrance Historical Society is kicking off their annual Walking Tours of Old Torrance (founded 1912) -- everyone is invited!
This docent-led tour begins at the Torrance Historical Museum, and will point out the historic sites and landmarks of Old Torrance including:
* Original site of Jared Sidney Torrance Memorial Hospital
* Nativity Church (1939)
* Kent Twitchell Mural (20' x 110', 1979)
* Torrance High School - this was the first property in Torrance to be placed on the National Register of Historic Places, U.S. Department of the Interior, 1983
Many more historic sites will be seen along the way. The tour will also include information regarding how industrialist Jared Sidney Torrance, prompted by developing labor troubles in Los Angeles, decided in 1910 to build a "workingman's paradise" -- a model industrial city halfway between Los Angeles and the San Pedro harbor.
The tour is an easy, but brisk walk covering eight blocks. It's open to the public, requires no reservations. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended, and guests are invited to bring a camera, and a friend!
