The Long Wharf in Santa Monica, also known as Port Los Angeles or the Mile Long Pier, was an extensive pier wharf constructed by the Southern Pacific Railroad Company in Santa Monica Bay from 1892–94. When it opened in 1894, it was the longest wharf in the world, measuring approximately 4,700 feet. It served as a cargo and passenger port until 1913, and in 1919 removal of the wharf started. The wharf, the 1000 foot tip of the pier, was removed by 1920. The remaining 3,600 feet of pier was used as a run down fishing pier until 1933, when the remainder of the pier was removed. One of the major imports to the wharf was lumber from Northern ports, to help in the construction boom in Southern California. Southern Pacific Railroad and the street cars of the Los Angeles Pacific Railroad served the wharf. Los Angeles Pacific Railroad ran passenger trams to the wharf and from midnight to sunrise ran cargo cars. The site of the Port Los Angeles Long Wharf is a California Historical Landmark, site number 881. The Wharf was North of the current Santa Monica Pier. Today, no trace remains of the pier. The current site of the Long Wharf is now Pacific Palisades and the California State Route 1, at the Will Rogers State Beach lifeguard headquarters. A Historical Landmark monument plaque is at the site, along with a few feet of track.

The Bernheimer Gardens were 8-acre (350,000 sq ft; 32,000 m2; 3.2 ha) 20th-century formal gardens in California in the United States that showcased a private collection of bronze statues from Asia. The gardens were open to the public at (corner of Marquez Street) in Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles, below what is now the Sunset Highlands neighborhood, from 1928 until 1944. The gardens also featured Asian-influenced plantings and tea houses, presumably chashitsu. They were sometimes called the Bernheimer Chinese Gardens or the Bernheimer Oriental Gardens; surviving photos of the buildings show a strong Japanese design influence.In 1936, it was reported that some US$3,000,000 (equivalent to about $63,266,190 in 2022) had been invested in the gardens. The Bernheimer Gardens were known for their annual begonia show. A landslide below the gardens closed "Roosevelt Highway" (now called the Pacific Coast Highway) in 1944. This was the first of a series of "devastating landslides" that destroyed the gardens, leading to their closure. The founder of the gardens, Adolph B. Bernheimer, died at the same time as the landslides began and the gardens deteriorated until, by 1951, there was no sign of them left.The same family had an estate in Hollywood at what is now Yamashiro Restaurant.

The Old Santa Monica Forestry Station is the nation's first experimental forestry station, built in 1887. The Old Santa Monica Forestry Station was designated a California Historic Landmark (No.840) on March 20, 1970. Old Santa Monica Forestry Station is located at Rustic Canyon in Los Angeles in the Santa Monica Mountains of Southern California in Los Angeles County. The site is south of what is now called Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. In 1971 the state placed a marker near the entrance of the Rustic Canyon Recreation Center at the NW corner of Latimer and Hilltree Roads, at 601 Latimer Road, Los Angeles, CA 90402. This location is in what is now called Pacific Palisades. The hills and canyons around the Santa Monica Canyon were a land boom in the late 1880s. Abbot Kinney (1850-1920), from New Jersey, was a land developer and a conservationist. Kinney is best known for his "Venice of America" development in Los Angeles. Kinney was appointed to a three-year position as chairman of the California Board of Forestry. Kinney established the nation's first forestry station in Rustic Canyon on 6 acres (24,000 m2) of land donated by Santa Monica co-founder John P. Jones (also a U.S. Senator from Nevada), and Arcadia Bandini de Stearns Baker. One of the station's projects was a study of the newly introduced eucalyptus trees. Located one mile inland from Pacific Ocean's Santa Monica Bay, Rustic Canyon was a good place for the new experimental forestry station. The station tested exotic trees to see if they were good for planting in California. The station started plantations, management studies, and grew plants for scientific and conservation studies. In 1893 the station turned over operation to the University of California, which ran the station till 1923. Abbot Kinney published two books from the work done at the Old Santa Monica Forestry Station: a 1895 book tilted Eucalyptus, B.R. Baumgardt & Co., ISBN 1-4086-6309-0, 334 pages, 2008) and in 1900 the book titled Forest and Water, The Post publishing Company. The eucalyptus groves in Rustic Canyon, the site of the Old Santa Monica Forestry Station, still stand today. A state plaque was dedicated on August 18, 1971 next to the eucalyptus groves.
