Bluff Park Historic District is a small, very upscale neighborhood which contains some of Long Beach’s most dignified homes. The historic district includes a variety of architectural styles, including Greene and Greene, American Craftsman, California Bungalow, Spanish Revival, Prairie Style, American Colonial Revival, Tudor and Mediterranean, constructed between 1903 and 1949.
Bluff Park is home to The Long Beach Museum of Art. Built in 1912 the stately Craftsman building is the former Elizabeth Milbank Anderson house; it is located on the bluffs at 2300 E. Ocean Bl. Bluff Park is also home to a Buddhist monastery that once was a Roman Catholic convent.
Back in the 1930’s Long Beach was known as the motion picture capital of the world until post World War I when Hollywood developed around the glitz of the era. With its perfect Southern California climate, Long Beach afforded the perfect setting for the industry. There were eight film houses, two stock companies, roller-coasters and bath houses at the historic Pike, along the shore of Downtown Long Beach. This was the home of the Balboa Amusement Production Company, the world’s most prolific silent-film studio. W. C. Fields and other stars lived in beautiful mansions in the Bluff Park neighborhood along Ocean Boulevard and First Street, many of which remain in the families to this day.
Bluff Park is one of Long Beach’s most coveted neighborhoods.

8/8/08 Bluff Park Historic District Home located at 2609 East 2nd St Closed Escrow.
8/8/08 is considered by the Chinese to be a very lucky day. The number is coveted for addresses, phone numbers and bank accounts. A single 8 on a piece of property lends a sense of high status among the Chinese, as they know top dollars were paid just to obtain that number.
Lucky 8 is so lucky, that the Beijing Olympics opened on 8/8/08 at exactly 8:08:08 PM. |
