In 1784 the Spanish Crown granted Rancho San Pedro, more than 75,000 acres including present Torrance, to the soldier Juan Jose Dominguez. In 1846 Governor Pio Pico granted Rancho de los Palos Verdes to Jose Loreto and Juan Capistrano Sepulveda.
More about Torrance
In the early 1900s the real estate developer Jared Sidney Torrance and other investors saw the chance to build a mixed industrial and residential town south of Los Angeles. They bought part of an old land grant and hired the landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. to design a planned community. The town was founded in October 1912 and named for Torrance, and it was incorporated in May 1921. The first residential streets were Gramercy and Andreo avenues in what is now Old Torrance, where many houses passed 100 years old in 2012 and the area is under review as a historic district. Some early civic and residential buildings were designed by the Southern California architect Irving Gill, who combined Mission Revival with early modern design.
