Hamer Toyota Hamer History The Hamer Family Farm, formerly at Sepulveda Blvd. and San Fernando Mission, was purchased in 1917 for $1,200 by Charles G. Hamer. It included a small house and it was there the family made fruit boxes and crates for the big citrus growers in the Valley. Valley. Before the freeway, freeway, old Sepulveda was the main road to go over the mountains into the Santa Clarita Valley. Valley. Because it was a steep climb many of the old cars and Model T’s would overheat and coast back down the hill to the front door of the Hamer farm for water.. Location was everything and the Hamer family built their home and a service water station to take care of those people in need.

An organization that would promote, develop and preserve business concerns while working hand-in-hand with residents was just what this growing community needed. The newly formed Chamber of Commerce held many of its early meetings in the old Pioneer Church (Chatsworth Community Church). To To be more accessible for residents and at to be at the center of the community, community, the Chamber moved its offices to 10038 Old Depot Plaza Road in December 1997.

13 100 Years Years of Fostering Fostering Busines Businesss Growth Growth and Communit Communityy Well Being Being In its first 25 years as a town, Chatsworth had become a community. They had a post office, church, main street, school and a thriving business center. There was only one thing left to do--start their own Chamber of Commerce that would protect and benefit both the business and residential stakeholders of their community. So on April 20, 1914, 14 prominent members of the Chatsworth community established the Chatsworth Chamber of Commerce (currently the Chatsworth/Porter Ranch Chamber of Commerce). The first elected officers of this newly formed body were President N.C. Johnson, Vice President W.H. Mathews, Secretary J. Villegas and Treasurer C.W C.W.. Johnson.
Besides supporting community infrastructure, the Chamber Board of Directors has also taken a proactive approach to providing educational opportunities to children in the area through its endorsement of programs such as the FIRST Competition, devised to encourage the study of math, science and engineering amongst high school students. The idea was originally brought to them by then Chamber Board member Jerre Reimers, an employee of Aerojet Rocketdyne (then Rocketdyne) who in the mid-90s saw an article about the FIRST program and wanted to bring it to schools in Chatsworth. The board supported the idea, but Reimers did all the ground work, including helping to form the first team at Chatsworth High School.
Early Chamber meetings were held at the Old Pioneer Church (now Chatsworth Community Church). Over the years, the Chamber has had offices in the Chatsworth Community Center at 10322 Santa Susana Drive and the Pampalone Schubert dental offices (now Chatsworth Dental Group). Today, the Chamber office is located at 10038 Old Depot Rd., adjacent to Metropolitan Transit Authority and Amtrak Stations.
Since then, the CHS team has won California competitions and participated on the national level. They are recipients of the National Chairman’s Award and in 2001 were honored in the state capital and the White House for their achievements. Reimers remained active for several years coordinating and helping to fund the program. It eventually was taken over by a Physics teacher at the school. The FIRST program has grown to include many of the Valley high schools and those in Santa Clarita and Simi valleys. Several local middle schools including Lawrence Middle School have also taken up the cause with the FIRST LEGO League.
Women were first allowed to join the chamber in 1953, although they had been petitioning to do so since its early days. In 1966 the Chamber hired its first full-time manager, Maureen Remenih. The first woman to become president of the chamber was Dr. Ruth Boak, a professor of pediatrics, public health and microbiology at UCLA, in 1978, who performed breakthrough research regarding rubella. A year prior to her election to Chamber president, Dr. Dr. Boak was named “Outstanding Citizen” in Chatsworth.
The Chamber has also been an intrinsic part of the many festivities Chatsworth is known for, including The Day of the Horse festival and the Holiday Parade and Festival. In addition, the Chamber has also instituted several annual events, which have become an important part of the community’s calendar, including: the Legends and Heroes Awards Dinner, the Small Business Expo, the West Valley Small Business Expo, the Holiday Luncheon/Toy Drive, the Community Blood Drive, and the Unforgettable Educator Recognition Dinner. Dinner. Other chamber activities include publishing a business directory, suporting ribbon cutting ceremonies, issuing certificates of origin and implementing a Gold Card program, which offers discounts from local businesses.
In an effort to keep its membership informed of public policy and to give them a chance to meet legislators and policy makers face-to-face, the Chamber initiated what has become their signature event--the State of the Community Breakfast. Elected officials from all levels of government in our community are invited to speak—and then participate in an off-the-cuff Q&A session.
Throughout the years, the Chatsworth/Porter Ranch Chamber has enriched the community, staying true to the precept established by the original 14 members: “To support our members through leadership and advocacy as we engage in activities that enhance and strengthen an environment which fosters business growth and the well-being of our community.”
Throughout the years, the Chamber has helped support major transportation and expansion plans for the community, which has been highlighted by a steady celebrity presence. This has included such legendary Hollywood names as Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, who were also named Honorary Mayors of Chatsworth; Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, and Frank Sinatra, who rented a home in the area.

19 Cha Chatswo tsworth rth 125th Anniv Anniversar ersaryy CHATSWORTH CHATSWOR TH CELEBRATES C ELEBRATES 125 YEARS Y EARS AS AN ANCHOR OF THE NORTH SAN FERNANDO VALLEY VALLEY Before Northridge…before Porter Ranch…before Granada Hills…there was Chatsworth. The farming community then known as Chatsworth Park was officially established on March 10, 1888. Early residents planted wheat, as well as peach, pear and walnut trees. Chatsworth Park was the passageway to the San Fernando Valley. It sat at the foot of the stagecoach trail which connected the San Fernando and Simi Valleys and areas to the north. Stage coaches not only carried passengers, but also delivered mail. In 1890, two years after Chatsworth Park Park became a town, Joseph A. Nelson was named the first in a long line of postmasters, which also included four women: Lori Cowgill (1924), Blanch White (1926), Marie G. Turner (1945), and Caroline Frost (1951). The post office itself was first built in 1893. Over the years, it moved to various locations along Santa Susana Ave. (now Topanga Canyon Blvd.) and Devonshire St., where it now sits near the corner of Owensmouth. The farming community was put on the map in 1893 when the Southern Pacific Railroad completed the 22 mile Burbank Branch to Chatsworth. A depot station and the Chatsworth Hotel were soon added at Topanga and Marilla. In 1904 three tunnels were completed to connect Chatsworth Park to Simi Valley along a new coastal route that can still be travelled today.. The railway began to list the community as Chatsworth instead of Chatsworth Park. today The shortened name was eventually adopted by the townspeople. By 1900 Chatsworth had 23 residents, a post office, a general store, a hotel and a railroad station. The town fathers organized the Valley’s Valley’s first Chamber of Commerce on April 20, 1914.

This also brought celebrities to the area, including Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, who starred in many westerns over the years; Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball; and, in recent years, Kevin Spacey, Val Kilmer Kilmer and Kirk Cameron, Cameron, to name a few. few. Following World World War I farmers began planting oranges, lemons, grapes and figs. These crops greatly contributed to the survival of the community and those who came through it during the Great Depression.

World War War II brought further expansion to this community community.. The area experienced a growth spurt in the early 1960’s, going from 16,000 to 30,000 residents. As the community grew, so did the schools, businesses, religious and civic organizations.

Although welcomed, welcomed, the growing population population required a large supply supply of water. water. The opening of the Owens Aqueduct on Nov. 5, 1913 remedied that problem. The aqueduct, built by William Mulholland, connected water in the Eastern Sierra’s Owens Valley to a reservoir west of San Fernando. Its opening ensured that the City of Los Angeles would have a steady water supply.
Families began to filter in, but the population in the northern part of the Valley remained sparse until former California Senators Charles Maclay and George Porter purchased it in 1874.
Chatsworth and many Valley towns towns were not part of the City of Los Angeles; therefore, their water fees were higher. To access this water system at a reasonable cost, Valley residents voted to join the City of Los Angeles in 1915.
Maclay devoted much of his land parcel to forming the City of San Fernando. Porter held the land immediately west of San Fernando. He sold a portion of his parcels to farmers and ranchers, rancher s, and several hundred acres to his cousin Benjamin F. F. Porter. Porter. Ben Porter’s land parcel would later become the communities of Chatsworth, Porter Ranch and Northridge.
The water not only enabled Valley farmers to irrigate existing crops, it also expanded its variety of crop options to include beets, lima beans, lemons, walnuts, grapes and tomatoes.
Settlers eventually began moving to Chatsworth. Its ample farm and ranch land, along with its close proximity to the Santa Susana Stage Coach Relay Station, drew them to the area. The Stage Coach Trail was in use f rom 1861 to 1895.
Around 1912, Around 1912, the the Valle Valley’s y’s economy economy received ved yet yet anothe anotherr boost boost when when the the movie movie studio studioss discove discovered red the convenience of filming in their own backyard. Cinematic legends, including D.W. Griffith and Cecil B. DeMille, were just a couple of the big Hollywood names that filmed here.
The Relay Station provided fresh horses for the stage coaches and a rest stop for passengers, before the steep climb over the Stage Coach Trail through the Simi Hills known as the “Devil’s Slide” , between Chatworth and Simi Valley.. Valley.. In 1876, the Southern Pacific Railroad established a route from Los Angeles to San Francisco through the San Fernando tunnel, limiting the Stage Coach trail use to local traffic.
The Iverson Ranch was a favorite filming site because of the scenic rocks and rugged landscapes that were ideal for the backdrop of many westerns, as were the hills and sandstone formations above Chatsworth and the Porter Ranch area. Chatsworth experienced a second population boon after World War II when servicemen returned and young families began to purchase homes in the Valley. Valley. Chatsworth flourished, gaining many new residents, schools, and industries.
It was in 1888 that Chatsworth, originally named Chatsworth Park, became a town. In 1893, the Southern Pacific Railroad completed a spur from Burbank to Chatsworth, replacing the stagecoach as the main source of transportation to and from Chatsworth. A depot stop made it easier for farmers and ranchers to get their products to market. The Chatsworth Station remains still today, but now serves as a stop for Amtrak, Metro trains and MTA buses.
The industrial parks that sprouted up in the 1960s attracted the high-tech and manufacturing industries. New industries brought the need for more housing, schools and supermarkets. The modernization of Chatsworth resulted in the disappearance of many of the areas’ citrus and walnut groves, as well as horse ranches.
In 1899, Chatsworth became a railroad boom town, as quarry operations began in what is now Santa Susana Pass State Historic Park, and the Southern Pacific Railroad began blasting three tunnels through solid rock from Chatsworth to Simi Valley. Valley. The tunnels were completed in 1904, with a new coastal route established from Burbank to Chatsworth to Ventura and Santa Barbara.

Porter Ranch
25 Cha Chatswo tsworth/ rth/Porte Porterr Ranch—Th Ranch—Then en and Now stretched nearly three miles long. His cousin Benjamin owned 20,000 acres in the valley ’s northwestern area. Because it was far removed from the railroad line, it was the least desirable section, and remained relatively undeveloped.
PORTER RANCH After the successful successful Mexican War War of Independence from Spain in 1821, the Mission San Fernando became part of Alta California, Mexico. Thirteen years later, the Mexican government began redistributing those mission lands. It wasn’t until 1846 that Governor Pío Pico gave a land grant to Eulogio de Celis, which turned out to be 116,858-acre Mexican Rancho Ex-Mission San Fernando. This land was bounded on the north by Rancho San Francisco Francisc o and the Santa Susana Mountains, on the west it was surrounded by the Simi Hills, on the east by Rancho Tujunga, Tujunga, and on the south by the Santa Monica Mountains (known as Montañas de Portesuelo back then).
By the late 1880s most latecomers found it more difficult to find good farmland in the valley.. Most were consigned to seek out marginal land in the surrounding hills for ranches valley and homesteads. So Benjamin sold the western end of his land to the San Fernando Valley Valley Improvement Company,, which created the Chatsworth Park subdivision and then he farmed his r emaining Company acreage. George Porter and Senator Maclay also subdivided their lands. In the late 1930’s the author W.W. Robinson described the ranch lands as containing large ranch estates on 10,000 acres of rolling hills with magnificent vistas. It must have been a sight to see, for sure.
The grant derived its name from the secularized Mission San Fernando Rey de España, but was called ex-Mission because of a division made of the lands held in the name of the Mission. The grant encompassed most of the present day San Fernando Valley. Valley. At the same time time Isaac Lankershim Lankershim and Isaac Newton Newton Van Van Nuys were involved involved with converting the lower half of the San Fernando Valley from sheep and cattle ranching to farming, others were doing the same in the northern half. That’s when in 1874, former State Senator Charles Maclay of San Jose, with his partners, San Francisco Benjamin F. and George K. Porter, borrowed $60,000 from Leland Stanford and purchased 57,000 acres of land north of Lankershim and Van Nuys’ holdings. Maclay, who owned all of the land east of the Southern Pacific railroad tracks east to the San Maclay, Gabriel foothills, laid out the town of San Fernando and subdivided the rest of his property into small ranches. George K. Porter owned a third of the northern valley west from the railroad line to Aliso Canyon (Zeldah Avenue from Granada Hills to Northridge). He was the first to initiate large-scale citrus growing in the valley valley,, having planted a navel orange grove that reportedly

Benjamin Porter’s descendants decided to hold onto the ranch until the early 1960s. But this area was definitely still thought of as ranch land. During the late 1960’s and early 1970’s the unofficial entrance to Porter Ranch was even marked with two horse and rider statues. One was at the northwest corner of Tampa and Devonshire and the other was located at the northeast corne r on Devonshire and Tunney. Tunney. Rumor has it that many years later, one of the statues was found in a local trash dumpster. This area eventually garnered the reputation of housing horse ranches for numerous celebrities and also served as a filming location for several major movie studios. In cinema history,, Porter Ranch was most notable as the location of large portions of the famous film, history E.T.. the Extra-terrestrial, in 1982. There were a number of shots from the Steven Spielberg E.T blockbuster where they featured views looking down on the Porter Ranch neighborhood that sits beneath the ridge in Palisade Palisadess Park. Porter Ridge Park is also the sight of the park scene at the end of the movie.

THE DAY A COIN WAS FLIPPED FOR PORTER RANCH Ben and George Porter were decisive men – but once, they made a decision on the flip of a coin.
But eventually suburban development found its way to this remote community. Believe it or not, Porter Ranch was also the last community in the San Fernando Valley to join the City of Los Angeles.
In 1874 two northern Californias – George K. Porter and Charles Maclay, each of whom had served as state senators – learned that a vast acreage of the land was available for purchase in the San Fernando Valley. Valley. Both men had long been enthused with the possibilities of owning land in the Valley, so when they heard that approximately 60,000 acres of the Eulogio de Celis Rancho was for the sale (see main story on Porter Ranch in this issue), they did not hesitate in acquiring it.
It’s almost hard to imagine it being so remote as now it’s filled with upscale homes in gated communities and has gone from horse country to suburbia, full of upscale, single-family homes. The district, one of the higher median incomes in the San Fernando Valley, Valley, has a population that is almost 60% White and almost 30% Asian. Most of the residents commute to nearby cities such as Simi Valley and Downtown Los Angeles for work. With the strong public transportation access, via the Chatsworth and Northridge stations from the Metrolink commuter rail system, it’s no wonder wonder..
Porter, who bought a three-fourth interest in the property Porter, property,, decided to go into ranching; Maclay,, with his one-fourth interest, proceeded to subdivide and develop his land. Maclay A few years later, later, Porter’s cousin- Benjamin F. Porter – came came south from Santa Cruz and became a partner in both ventures.
While it is just minutes from hiking trails and spectacular scenic views that may be reminiscent of it’s more rural days that are long gone, it’s also home to the Porter Valley Valley Country Club, the Porter Ranch Town Center, the North Valley YMCA, parks, public library and several high-performing schools.
Because of differences in policy, the three eventually decided to divide the total holdings equally. equally. Maclay took the easterly portion and continues to pursue the sale of real estate. But the two Porters were unable to decide who would get the westerly portion and who would end up with the center section. (It is known that George Porter preferred the center parcel, so it must be assumed that the westerly portion was considered the least desirable).
Yet even today, the community of Porter Ranch is still growing. Newly gated communities are being built and businesses are moving into commercial space. The community remains vibrant, offering residents, businesses and visitors a ‘small-town ‘small-town’’ feel with big city advantages. It’s an exciting time for this tiny city that’s still growing, and no telling what great things are in store for it and it ’s inhabitants.
The two Porters, however, however, did reach a “preliminary’ decision: they would flip a coin… So it was that one day back in 1882 a coin went up in the quiet of a Valley afternoon and came down with the answer: George Porter got the center section; Ben Porter got the other. It turned out that Ben Porter’s land gained considerable value with the discovery of oil in later years. The “winner,” however, wasn’t so lucky. It is on the Ben Porter land, too, that the present $350 million Porter Ranch community is now being developed. Who knows, things might be different today had the coin come “up” with another answer!

The gate to enter the calera is located on Plummer St. and Valley Circle Blvd., just west of Topanga Canyon Blvd. Chatsworth Nature Preserve Park, west of Valley Circle Blvd., is a nature and wildlife preserve, managed by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. Damage from the 1971 Sylmar Earthquake, resulted in the draining of the park’s lake. The habitat is part of the Simi Hills, located on the western edge of the San Fernando Valley. Dynamite Shed, a one-story structure, sits on the historic homestead of the Minnie Hill Palmer Residence at 22360 Devonshire St. The shed was built between 1890 and 1900 and is lined with quarry stone. It was used to store dynamite during the construction of the Santa Susana Pass Tunnel Tunnel (1898 - 1904).
Where Whe re to to Go and and Wha Whatt to Do Do 34 The Harvester Barn, a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument was built in early 20th Century. The barn, located at 22049 Devonshire St., was named after a Palomino stallion housed in it named Harvester. Harvester was also the sire of “Mr. Ed,” a talking horse in an old television show. Homestead Acre and Hill Palmer House is what remains of the 230-acre homestead owned by the Hill family. In 1956, Minnie Hill Palmer sold the land to the City of Los Angeles, but arranged to live in the bungalow located at 10385 Shadow Oak Dr. rent- and tax-free until her death. The family built the bungalow known as the Hill Palmer House in about 1911. Today, the house remains a monument to pioneers who homesteaded the Valley and is the last remaining homestead. The Lassen Street Olive Trees, also known as 76 Mature Olive Trees, is located on Lassen St. between Topanga Canyon Blvd. and Farralone St. In 1967, it was designated a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument. Today, only 49 trees remain. The trees were originally planted in 1890 by N. A. Grey, an early settler to the area from cutting believed to be taken from olive trees at Mission San Fernando. The Munch Box is located at 21532 Devonshire St. The yellow and red hotdog and hamburger stand has been owned and operated by the Barker family since it opened in 1956. It purportedly once had a hitching post so local equestrians could stop and tie up their horses while they ate. The famous singer and cowboy actor Roy Rogers and his wife actress Dale Evans were among its celebrity patrons. In 2002, the stand was threatened by a new shopping center and storage facility being built on the property. Through the efforts of the Chatsworth Historical Society and the community, the stand was designated a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument. Pioneer Church was the first church built in Chatsworth and the only church in the northwest San Fernando Valley until the 1950’s. It was a community church originally located at 10051 Topanga Canyon Blvd. The Church was moved by The Chatsworth Historical Society to Oakwood Memorial Park, 22601 Lassen St. in 1965 to preserve the building. Built with volunteer labor the church served as a community center and as the venue for high school
classes for several years. The church is now the home of St. Mary the Virgin Anglican Rite Catholic Church with services held every Sunday morning at 10 a.m. Old Stage Coach Trail Property in South Chatsworth Park is comprised of 55 acres immediately south of Chatsworth Park South and north of Oakwood Cemetery. The Stage Coach Trail, which ran through the Santa Susana Pass, dates from the 1860’s. A half mile from the trailhead the dirt road intersects a paved road, leading to a small hydroelectric pumping plant. Look for a break in the chain link fence by two telephone poles. It will lead to the Old Stage Coach Rd. The road continues past Devil’s slide, a rock into which the stage coach route was cut. Along the way, there are drainage chutes, cisterns once used captured rainwater and notches carved out by the stage coaches wagon wheels. Near the top of the slide is a historical marker placed by the Native Daughters of the American West commemorating “Old Santa Susana Stagecoach Rd., 1859-90.”
RESTAURANTS The Chatsworth/Porter Ranch neighborhoods have an ethnically diverse group of eateries and restaurants in price ranges that suit all budgets. Lovers of Italian cuisine will want to visit Maria’s Italian Kitchen, Olive Garden, Roma Bistro or San Carlo Italian Imports & Deli. If hot and spicy food is on the menu then Villanueva Mexican Grill or Los Toros Restaurant are fantastic choices. For good southern cooking and soul food, Les Sisters Southern Kitchen is number one. If sushi is the dish of choice then Honshu Sushi is the restaurant. Applebee’s, Carrows, and Giamela’s Lamplighter are great for American cuisine. For a quick meal, try Zpizza, Subway, McDonalds, Jersey Mike’s, or Sevan Chicken. For more romantic or elegant dining Morton’s The Steakhouse or The Odyssey Restaurant top the list. Party catering is elevated to a whole new art form when The Dishionary is involved.

CHATSWOR CHATS WORTH TH HISTORICAL SOCIETY SOCI ETY The CHS was formed in 1963 and upholds a three point mission in addition to the commemoration of historical dates and events:
1. 2. 3.
To preserve and mark historic sites and landmarks of the Chatsworth area. To be an agency for the collection of photographs, artifacts,and archaeological archaeological items that represent the history of Chatsworth. To establish a museum to house and exhibit the collection.
The first project was the saving and the moving of the Chatsworth Community Church, now called the Pioneer Church. It took hundreds of hours of volunteer labor and over $20,000 to accomplish, but the church was rehabilitated. During the bicentennial year of 1976, the completed church was rededicated and is presently leased to an Anglican Catholic Church. The Pioneer Church is Los Angeles Historical Monument No. 14. It is located in Oakwood Memorial Park, 22601 Lassen St., Chatsworth, CA 91311. The society has also worked on preserving numerous other Chatsworth historical sites and monuments, including: • Naming to historic status the 1890 olive trees on Lassen Street (Los Angeles Historical Monument No. 49) • Working to have Stoney Point Point named a city mountain climbing park (Los Angeles Historical Monument No. 132) • Working to help preserve the Stage Coach Trail (Los Angeles Historical Monument No. 92)
In 1978, the Chatsworth Historical Society was named as conservator of the Homestead Acre, which is owned by the Los Angeles City Department of Recreation and Parks. Ongoing activities focus on the preservation and maintenance of the Homestead Acre, the name given to the 1.3 acre compound in Chatsworth Park South that contains the Hill-Palmer Cottage (Los Angeles Historical Monument No. 133), the Virginia Watson Chatsworth Museum, and the Frank H. Schepler, Jr. Memorial Library. The majority of the site is given over to gardens with more than 300 rose bushes, including modern (hybrids) and historical roses, fruit trees and native California plants.
It feels good to know we're all connected.
Two fundraising events are held at the Acre each year year,, the “Garden Festival” in April, and “Pioneer Day” in October. October. The Homestead Acre is open to the public public for tours from 1 to 4 p.m. on the first Sunday of every month.

On March 20 residents voted to become part of the City of Los Angeles. Because Chatsworth and many Valley towns were not part of the City of Los Angeles their water fees were higher. To access this water system at a reasonable cost, Valley residents voted to join the City of Los Angeles on March 20. The water not only enabled Valley farmers to irrigate existing crops, it also expanded its variety of crop options to include beets, lima beans, lemons, walnuts, grapes and tomatoes.
In May, the Chatsworth Chamber voted 12 to 4 not to allow women as members and 11 to 5 not to admit women as honorary members. Women, through through their husbands, continued to press for membership. Grace Hageman Armstrong finally gave up and started the Chatsworth Women’s Women’s Club in 1921. This is one of the oldest continuing clubs in the valley.
