Hermosa Beach means "Beautiful" beach and was once the domain of herds of sheep which grazed the barley fields there. The area was originally part of the Rancho Sausal Redondo. A.E. Pomeroy bought 1500 acres in 1900. It would become what is now Hermosa Beach. The first pier was built in 1904, completely of wood. It went five hundred feet into the ocean.
