Real Estate Appraisers and Appraisals In
Los Angeles County, City of Canoga Park
The area was
originally named Owensmouth by Los Angeles Times publisher Harrison Gray Otis
due to its proximity to the Los Angeles Aqueduct that brought water from the
Owens Valley. The Janss Corporation founded the town on March 30, 1912. In 1955
the Rocketdyne, then a spinoff of North American Aviation, moved into the area.
It became a major employer and other aerospace companies followed, including
North American Aviation, Hughes Aircraft (now Boeing), Atomics International,
and Teledyne. Small machine shops and other ancillary businesses also sprang up
to service the aerospace industry. Most of the appraisal area is now suburban
communities with small industrial areas, however some of the area is still
rural; film production, stunt, equine, and feed businesses still exist. Canoga
Park is zoned to the following Los Angeles Unified School District schools:
Canoga Park Elementary School, Columbus Middle School, and Canoga Park High
School. Canoga Park is mentioned on Frank Zappa’s album Joe's Garage. |
