Highlighting the Historical Harbor : October 1965 the first-completed S-II Stage of the Saturn V rocket made its way out of North American Aviation in Seal Beach for a 2-mile trip down Bay Boulevard (Seal Beach Boulevard) to the Naval Weapons Station docks. Happy Moon Landing!

The decades following WWII witnessed profound change in Long Beach. The population soared past two hundred thousand souls. All of this activity brought new infrastructure. Joseph Risinger pointed his camera at this frenetic jumble of construction and grand openings. #portoflb
