@ttylerwells: did you know there’s a forgotten neighborhood hidden behind fences right next to lax? this used to be palisades del rey + surfridge, a glamorous beachside community built in the 1920s. jets changed everything in the 50s + 60s… and by 1975, every home was gone. today, the only clues left are crumbling foundations, buried roads, and a protected stretch of dunes. if you’ve ever heard stories about this place, or your family lived here before it vanished, drop a comment! i want to hear everything 👀 #losthistory #surfridge #abandonedplaces #lax #losangeles

yes my aunt bought 2 homes from that area and had them towed to her empty lot in Los Angeles. Those 2, $25,000 homes with the old lot is now worth a good $600,000.00 or more.👍

What a waste of beachfront. Horrible place for an airport

“Palisades Del Rey” sounds like a Lana Del Rey album

I wonder why LAX couldn’t have been built in a less prime, beachfront area? I don’t live in CA, so forgive my ignorance

That’s sad they all lost their homes to eminent domain. My grandparents and all their neighbors lost their farm to eminent domain long ago. An interstate now runs through it.

Similar thing happened/is happening in Hawai’i at Fort Kamehameha. It’s less known about because they are on Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam, but you see them if you fly into HNL. The beautiful historic homes are still there, rotting away as big commercial airplanes fly over them. One (Quarters 22) was used as the house in the 2015 move “Aloha.”

I grew up going to this beach as a hangout spot, those empty lots always seemed sketchy to me! Glad to know some insight about it! Thank you!

My dad had a childhood friend who lived here. His families was one of the last 5 that sold. They were living among empty lots by the time they left. He tells stories of going over for dinner and everyone having to pause mid conversation because a plane was flying overhead and the whole house would rattle.
