Happy New Year!
With the New Year, comes an opportunity to start fresh and with a clean slate! Begin this year by setting a New Year's resolution and sticking to it! Maybe you want to participate more in the community. Your Neighborhood Website can help you do just that! It offers many valuable resources for you to connect with other residents in the neighborhood and stay informed with what's happening in the area!
- The Hollywood Riviera is in the City of Torrance, but has a Redondo Beach zip code (90277) and unlike many other Torrance communities, "The Riviera" (as some residents call it) has a distinct feel that sets it apart from neighboring communities.
The original developer of the Hollywood Riviera was entranced by the movie business and felt that the seaside properties would be a natural location for the Hollywood “set” to buy and build. A few movies were made in the thirties and few smart producers bought properties, but the Hollywood scene never materialized. What did materialize are delightful cluster of shops, restaurants, café bistros and galleries know as the "Riviera Village".

Public opinion is a weak tyrant, compared with our private opinion. What a man thinks of himself, that it is which determines, or rather indicates, his fate.
