Glendale
I’ve lived in the City of Glendale for the past 30 years, so I thought I’d give you a little “look see” of my Backyard. Glendale made the transition from a grazing area for the Verdugo families cattle to a small community in the 1880’s and became a city in 1906. It’s grown from a small community of about 300 residents in 1880 to a city of over 200,000 residents today. It’s located at a bend in the Los Angeles River where the Verdugo Wash enters the river. The city covers an area from the San Gabriel Mountains, includes the eastern Verdugo Hills and the flatlands to their south.

Glendale Post Office
This is the main Glendale Post Office that was built during the 1930’s(their version of “Infrastructure Week”).
