The Playa del Rey area, located about two miles south of Kinney's Venice of America resort, was once, centuries ago, the mouth of the Los Angles River. But after the river shifted course to begin emptying in Los Alamitos Bay in Long Beach, it left behind a sleepy lagoon more than two miles wide and one fifth of a mile wide with a trickle of fresh water flowing to sea along La Ballona Creek.
Del Rey Lagoon formed the southwest corner of the 13,920 acre (15 square miles) Rancho La Ballona that stretched inland from the ocean into what is now Palms and Culver City and north to Pico Boulevard in Santa Monica. It was a land grant that was awarded by the Mexican governor in 1839 to Ygnacio and Augustin Machado and Felipe and Tomas Talamantes.
The resort had several other attractions over the years. An incline railroad was built up the side of the palisades to give tourists a panoramic view of the lagoon and seashore. Its two cars were named Alphonse and Gaston. In 1913 racing promoters build a Motordrome which featured a mile circumference wooden track. Auto races there featured Barney Oldfield and other pioneer race car drivers. The track, which was near the present day intersection of Culver and Jefferson Boulevard, burned the following year.
But as times and tastes changed just prior to the first World War, the town's tourist facilities were damaged or destroyed by nature. A large portion of the fishing pier collapsed in July 1911 and again in July 1917. Tide gates, which maintained high water in the lagoon, had to be dynamited during a heavy winter rainstorm because nearby Venice and the vast flat ground between became flooded. Soon the grandstands were torn down and sand clogged the boat course. The pavilion burned before the war and the Del Rey Hotel, which had become notorious as a house of prostitution in 1917, burned in a disasterous fire on May 31, 1924. The building, that was being used as the Hope Development School to house mentally retarded girls, was the scene of a tragedy involving the death of 22 girls and the matron, Mrs. J.C. Thomas.
While Playa del Rey has since grown into a bedroom community along the beach, much of the lagoon was lost when Ballona Creek was channelized in 1938 by the Army Corp of Engineering, and when the Marina del Rey's wide entrance channel cut the lagoon in the early 1960's.
