Photograph (engineering notebook photoprint) looking north along Pacific Electric tracks from foot of Ivalee Street (about 1 mile south of Culver Boulevard), Los Angeles County. There was no erosion between Culver Boulevard and the south city limits of El Segundo. This followed high tides (6.8 feet and 6.6 feet), accompanied by heavy ground swells and breakers which did considerable damage to piers and ocean front property between Hermosa Beach and Santa Monica along the route of the proposed "Ocean Front Walk" location of State Route 163. The high tide on 25 January occurred at 8:52 A.M. and measured 6.6 feet. This photograph was taken with the ebb tide at about 10:45 A.M. Also visible are: beach, utility poles and lines, a few trees, guard rail, ocean. No legible signs.
