About the Park
After America took Alta California by force, Pío Pico returned to California. In 1848, he began buying an 8,8,94 acre property. He named the land El Ranchito, the little ranch. Around 1853, Pico built an adobe ranch house near the San Gabriel River. He sold cattle during California’s gold rush, becoming wealthy. Beginning in the1860s, crops of wheat, barley, oats, orange trees and grapes were grown at El Ranchito. He opened the Pico House in Los Angles in 1870.

U.S. Congressman Ed Royce : 40th District Of California
DC is like any other major city. You should always travel with someone, and be aware of your surroundings. If you find yourself lost, stop, and ask someone for directions.

Bring sun protection. Hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen are always a good idea no matter where you go. Be sure to always have this with you, because like Southern California, you can still get sunburned on an overcast day. ... [Read More]

Expansion of rail service in California had one result that was never anticipated by the businessmen and politicians of San Francisco and Sacramento who worked so hard for the transcontinental link: Northern California lost its monopoly on the state's population and wealth. Without a rail link, Los Angeles, the first city of Mexican California, remained a sleepy village compared to the booming towns to the north. However, local business and political leaders were determined that Los Angeles would not be bypassed when rail lines came south, and city voters agreed to what was, in effect, a bribe to the Southern Pacific to bring the line directly through the city. Extension of the transcontinental rail line to Los Angeles triggered a boom in the southern part of the state, a boom that picked up even more steam once the Santa Fe Railway gave Los Angeles its own direct line to the East in 1885, a line in direct competition with the Southern Pacific. Los Angeles's population quadrupled in th ... [Read More]
