Nearly a century ago, the pristine beachside property was stripped from Willa and Charles Bruce by the City ofNearly six months after the property was returned to their descendants, the Bruce Family announced their decision to sell the property back to Los Angeles County for $20 million.
Under an agreement approved by the Board of Supervisors in late June 2022, the land was officially transferred to Marcus and Derrick Bruce, the great-grandsons of Charles and Willa Bruce. The Bruces were to lease the land back to the county for $413,000 a year for the continued operation of county lifeguard facilities at the site.
Complete with a bathhouse, dance hall and cafe, the resort attracted other Black families who purchased adjacent land and created what they hoped would be an oceanfront retreat. The resort was forced out of business, and the Bruces and other Black families ultimately lost their land in 1929.
