Palos Verdes Estates

Palos Verdes Estates was conceived by E. G. Lewis, a visionary promoter. At that time, what is now Palos Verdes Estates was a part of the Vanderlip Ranch. Prior to April, 1922, Lewis obtained an option from Vanderlip on approximately 3200 acres of land, which now comprise Palos Verdes Estates. The subdivision was laid out by Olmsted Brothers, a nationally known firm of landscape architects and Harry Cheney, a nationally known city planner.
