Ă propos de ce livre
Named for the garbanzo bean that Julio Verdugo raised on his Rancho San Rafael, the town of Garvanza was laid out by Ralph Rogers in 1886. The community soon became a haven for artists and others seeking a refuge from the growing urban life of Los Angeles. Early institutions included the Church of the Angels and the Judson Studios, founded by painter William Lees Judson to create art through stained glass. The towns identity was eventually overtaken by neighboring Highland Park, but the community name was reestablished in the 1990s by todays residents, who are as in love with its beauty as those 110 years earlier.

THE TOWN MATURES
The dawn of the 20th century found Garvanza well established as a suburb of Los Angeles. The citizens of Garvanza were proud of their town in spite of its short history. An electric commuter rail had opened in 1895. There were, however, issues that still had to be dealt with.
One of the problems was a network of streets that had yet to be paved. Whenever it rained, these roads became a massive quagmire, and neither man nor horse was safe from falling into holes. The community petitioned the city to pave its streets. In 1903, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks were installed at the cost of Garvanzaâs street tree canopy.
The Garvanza Improvement Association was incorporated the following year to see to it that the improvements were carried out in a proper and timely manner. The first order of business was to plant new street trees and to purchase a watering cart. The organization was also formed to keep Garvanza from being absorbed by neighboring Highland Park
The little town had been growing steadily since the mid-1890s, and this growth was to continue in a steady manner until the onset of the Great Depression slowed it to a trickle. The original Garvanza schoolhouse was outgrown and replaced by 1910, only to be replaced again a little over a decade later as the areaâs population continued to grow.
Garvanza had become a desirable home for artists and architects, with many large, custom homes and fashionable citizens. However, as the years went by, Garvanzaâs loss of identity remained on the horizon, especially after the creation of the Greater Highland Park Association in 1922, which sought to unite the areasâ clout for city services and political capital.
