Keep in mind just a few miles further south of the section of road they’re showing that there’s literally two portions where the road ends and goes no further. This same thing has happened before. One of those sections where an entire neighborhood once stood has been famously dubbed ‘the sunken city’ because its nearly fallen off of the cliff it was situated on. I’m not sure why people are surprised. Not to mention the road that is “now worse than it’s ever been,” only looks that way because that land has always moved. It’s always been a matter of when, not if.

I used to live in Rancho Palos Verdes ,and went to school at Palos Verdes Estates HS graduated in 1976. Even back then the Portuguese Bend area was sliding in to the Pacific ocean. The home's should have never been built in the area because of the ground was unstable moving a minimum of 4" a year. The main problem is due to 2 major issues, one is a large tunnel that was built back in the late 30's. It goes up to the first city hall of Rancho Palos Verdes, and has been bought by a private person. What people don't realize is that was a Nikey missile site, right the hill on the other side of Hawthorn Blvd, there were 2 defense concrete bunkers. They were double bunkers with connecting tunnels. The military did a lot of projects that the current people have know about. The 2nd major issue is back in the 50's there was a large Rock quarry off of Crest rd on the upper part of the Peninsula. And before that and after the areas were farming. The problem is that there is no way to Stabilize the area's. And there is a large trench in the ocean right off the Peninsula that actually cuts back under the Peninsula. We used to wonder how much land would still be above the ocean when the big earthquake ( that is over due) hits turns the Peninsula into an island. And there is the matter of the fault line that goes from Inglewood to Long Beach that is the finishing touch. The smart thing to do is get the money and move. Most of the original have gone or died, and because of the issues the current owner 's were able to get a great deal when they bought those homes, even though it was quite obvious that there was major issues with buying the houses in that area. I also spent 5 years in law enforcement on the Peninsula, patrolling the entire area. Until 84 was when I left the area.

Great story

[@coop3836]

I grew up in PVE from 1956 until I moved in 1967. Palos Verdes Drive West was constantly being repaired and we called the road a "roller coaster" while speeding along on our way to San Pedro. It was a "Wheee" ride, up and down. Portuguese Bend had already lost some homes due to slides. So...tRump builds a golf course there? Money talks. Damn the uninformed.

Palos Verde has always been a landslide area. But greedy developers back in the 50's managed to get past the previous moratorium on developing the area. Unfortunately, buyers of the homes put there had no idea, and now they have to pay the price of greed before them and no way to get back at the developers since they are probably all deceased. And engineers will be of much use as this has been going since before recorded history of the Los Angeles basin. There was a reason the Spanish landowners kept it only as grazing land for their livestock.

They should evacuate the entire area, and everyone should get ahead of the issue and move. This problem will not reverse itself; it will only get worse.

Before you speak you should listen. The $5 million wasn't from the state, it was from the county. Why do you expect the government to bail the homeowners out? We live in a capitalist country, do we not? I'm not suggesting that they don't deserve or shouldn't receive any help. Why aren't any of the residents going after the insurance companies that they have their home owner's policies with? It seems to me that should be where they need to focus their attention. Wouldn't it be wiser to accept reality, and accept the fact that they, nor the city, county, or even federal government can withstand the force of mother nature? They need to collect on their policies, gather their belongings, and relocate. I understand that this isn't ideal and can't be an easy choice, but it's the smart choice. If they're lucky in a few years maybe the feds can purchase the land back and convert it in a park or nature reserve. That's probably the best outcome that they have to look forward too.
