History of Manhattan Beach. "Cities such as this don't just
appear -- yet, comparatively speaking, the history of Manhattan Beach
covers a relatively short span. In its earliest days, Manhattan Beach was
part of the ten-mile ocean frontage of Rancho Sausal Redondo, which means
"Round Clump of Willows." At one time the area was called "Shore Acres" by
George Peck, who owned a section of the north end of town...."

- The Beach Reporter. "The
Beach Reporter is the community newspaper of the beach cities, serving the
South Bay every week since 1977. It covers four of the most affluent
cities along the Southern California coastline - Manhattan Beach, Hermosa
Beach, Redondo Beach and El Segundo.
With saturation coverage of South Bay homes, extensive street-rack
distribution and targeted business delivery, The Beach Reporter is the
largest and most well read publication in the area. The average weekly
page count is 160+.
The Beach Reporter provides the communities with an abundance of first
rate staff written articles and features, hundreds of display ads, a large
classified section, public notice advertising, and is by far the number
one source of real estate advertising in the South Bay.
Each weekly edition contains "city pages" covering the beach communities
plus overall sections focusing on opinions, local sports, dining,
entertainment, health and fitness, crime, community events and more.
The Beach Reporter helps keep South Bay residents informed about the
substantive issues facing their community. It also serves as their guide
for deciding where to buy goods and services throughout the area. This
newspaper is as much a part of the community as the gentle sea breeze that
makes the South Bay such a desirable places to live and work.
If you are interested in attracting the shoppers of the South Bay,
consider advertising in The Beach Reporter, just as the hundreds of
successful current advertisers do each week."
