About Canoga Park
Canoga Park is in Los Angeles County, in the Los Angeles-Long
Beach metro area. The community is in the Pacific Standard time
zone. The latitude of Canoga Park is 34.201N. The longitude is
-118.597W. The community was named after Canoga, NY. The area's
zoning was rural/agricultural and its industry was small farms
involved in production of fruits, vegetables, melons, some livestock,
horses, movie/television studio and stunt location work.The area
was originally named Owensmouth by Los Angeles Times publisher
Harrison Gray Otis due to its proximity to the Los Angeles Aqueduct
that brought water from the Owens Valley. The town was founded
on March 30, 1912, by the Janss Corporation, major developers.
The lack of an independent water supply made annexation to the
City of Los Angeles inevitable, and on February 26, 1917 it joined
with its larger neighbor. The name was changed to Canoga Park
in 1930.
In 1955 the Rocketdyne, then a spinoff of North American Aviation,
moved into the area. It became a major employer and other aerospace
companies followed, including North American Aviation, Hughes
Aircraft (now Boeing), Atomics International, and Teledyne. Small
machine shops and other ancillary businesses also sprang up to
service the aerospace industry.Much of the western section of
Canoga Park has been renamed West Hills. A portion of the eastern
section has been renamed Winnetka. Most of the area is now suburban
communities with small industrial areas, however some of the area
is still rural; film production, stunt, equine, and feed businesses
still exist.
