Chapter 5 Environmental Resources Local The City of Inglewood addresses aesthetics considerations for development in the community in many City documents, including the Zoning Code. The Code sets forth specific design guidelines, height limits, building density, building design and landscaping standards, sign regulations, and open space and setback requirements. In addition to the Zoning Code, several documents have been prepared which include additional guidelines, standards, and recommendations to revitalize certain areas of the City. These documents include: • The Inglewood Downtown District Main Street Project Area • The Market Street Renaissance and Downtown Revitalization Plan • The Market/La Brea Shopping District Revitalization Implementation Plan • The Century Boulevard Fly-Away and Beautification Project Study In addition, all residential and commercial development is reviewed by appointed Commissions and staff for aesthetic impact. • Issues • Prairie Avenue has the potential to become a strong visual resource; however, large unscreened parking lots, lack of street improvements including a median parkway landscaping and onsite landscaping and buffers contribute to lack of visual appeal along the corridor for pedestrians and vehicles. • Vacant store fronts and lack of maintenance along some of the City’s major corridors such as Imperial Highway create visually unappealing environments. • References Cheryl D.

5.5 Historical and Cultural Resources 5.5 HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES This section describes the existing historical and cultural resources in the City of Inglewood. Historic resources include structures which are listed or may be eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (National Register), the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), or any local designation. Cultural resources include all forms of public art, as well as venues that host cultural activities. Inglewood’s historic-cultural resources include physical elements, which define the City’s past and present and give Inglewood a unique identity and charm. These resources, when preserved and well maintained, provide the community with a sense of permanence which fosters civic Bookstore on Market Street (former Bank of Inglewood built in 1927) pride and stewardship among its residents and businesses. Information for this section is based on data obtained from the Inglewood Downtown District/Main Street Historic Resources Survey (October 1998), the California Environmental Resources Evaluation System (CERES) website, 83 the National Register website 84 , and the Inglewood Cultural Arts Master Plan (1996). • Inglewood Historical Background The City of Inglewood was originally designed following the patterns of urban growth that characterized late-nineteenth through early-twentieth-century Southern California. However, unlike most cities and communities comprising the greater metropolitan Los Angeles region, the periods of Inglewood’s development are readable within its built environment. Retention and respect for its historic street pattern, the scale relationships between the streets and their buildings, and the commercial center of what was initially the Centinela Valley, and in later years, the South Bay Region. The decline of its local economy in more recent decades has slowed down the pace of change. The evolving perception of land in nineteenth-century Southern California can be characterized by a gradual change of use from agricultural activities to real estate speculation, a process that was aided by the advent of streetcar lines. Inglewood’s chapter in this story began with the Rancho Aguaje del Centinela, a 2,200 acre property named after the Centinela Spring around which it was located. The creek still flows today within Edward Vincent Junior Park. The headquarters of the ranch property, called the 83 California Environmental Resources Evaluation System website, State Historical Landmarks, Los Angeles County, http://ceres.ca.gov/geo_area/counties/Los_Angeles/landmarks.html, accessed February, 2006. 84 National Register of Historic Places, Los Angeles County, website: http://www.nationalregisterofhistoricplaces.com/CA/Los+Angeles/state.html, accessed February, 2006.
