My Grandfather lived on Earnest Ave; my Grandmother farmed the area that was TRW. My father moved a house when the Hollywood freeway was being built. The house is still standing on Farrell Ave.

My father started little league baseball in Torrance, and the field was named Tibben/Texaco field. We have three generations that graduated from Redondo Union High School.

The old Fox was a beautiful place one where I got the crap scared out of me when the movie ‘Cyclops" played. I think that is the correct spelling? When the old place came down it was a sad day for sure. I still have a piece of Blue/Purple marble that was part of the building. I was a surfer spending all of my time at Knoll Hill, Sapphire, and of course Hermosa Beach.

It is great to see so many people with such memories of the Fox. I was just showing some of my grandchildren the piece of the building I have and the story that goes along with it.

I went on the Internet to find some more information to show the kids when I came across this site.

Thanks it brings back nothing but good memories, that is except for the movie Cyclops!
