"Close to the California mainland, yet worlds apart, Channel Islands
National Park encompasses five remarkable islands (Anacapa, Santa Cruz,
Santa Rosa, San Miguel, and Santa Barbara) and their ocean environment,
preserving and protecting a wealth of natural and cultural resources.
Isolation over thousands of years has created unique animals, plants, and
archeological resources found nowhere else on Earth and helped preserve a
place where visitors can experience coastal southern California as it once
was."

Heritage Square. "Oxnard's rich agricultural, historical, and
cultural heritage comes alive once again in a single block of the city's
friendly downtown.
In 1985, the Oxnard Redevelopment Agency and several of Oxnard's notable
families and investors joined together to preserve and bring new life to
several turn-of-the century homes and historic structures, including a
church, water tower, pump house and storehouse.
The church and two of the houses were built in downtown Oxnard in the
early 1900's. The other buildings belonged to original ranch families from
the Oxnard plains areas and were moved to their present location.
This unique block consists of both original and replicated historical
buildings. For both development and agricultural reasons, they have been
moved to this site from throughout the Oxnard community.
These relocated and restored structures are collectively called Heritage
Square.
Today, these beautiful buildings and lush grounds serve as an up-to-date
setting for professional offices, a visitor center, community theatre,
weddings, meetings, and special events.
You're invited to explore Heritage Square. It's a special place where
history lives and architectural treasures abound. It's a walk along brick
pathways, through manicured gardens, and past houses from the city's rich
pioneer roots.
Most of all, it's where you'll find everything old is new again!"
