Brea Mall

The Brea Mall is an enclosed shopping mall located in the Orange County city of Brea, California. Since 1998, the mall has been owned and operated by the Simon Property Group. It is home to four major department stores, 179 specialty shops and boutiques, and a food court. It is 1,281,795 sq ft (119,083 m2). The anchors are Macy's, Macy's Men's & Home, JCPenney, Nordstrom, and Dick’s Sporting Goods. The Dick’s Sporting Goods anchor building includes several shops, stores, and services that were added to the mall as part of a large development. History Plans for Brea Mall were announced by Homart in 1973. Architectonics, Inc. of Dallas was architect for the structure. Dan Coleman & Associates of San Francisco were responsible for master planning the project. The mall opened in 1977. Originally, the mall was anchored by Sears and May Company California. Later, The Broadway was added, and Nordstrom opened their second California store. J. W. Robinson's and a larger Nordstrom were then constructed along with a Y-shaped addition to the main mall in the early 1990s. In 1993, The May Department Stores Company merged J. W. Robinson's and May Company California to form Robinsons-May. As a result, the J. W. Robinson's store was sold to JCPenney (relocated from original location at Orangefair Marketplace in Fullerton), and the May Company California location was renamed and expanded. The Broadway was converted to Macy's after Federated Department Stores, Inc.'s purchase of The Broadway's parent company Carter Hawley Hale Stores in 1996. In 2006, due to the merger between Federated Department Stores and The May Department Stores Company, the Robinsons-May location was converted to a Macy's furniture store. In the 1970s and 1980s, the Brea Mall also had an ice skating rink that was later removed to expand the food court. On January 4, 2018, Sears announced that its Brea store would close, as part of a plan to close 103 stores nationwide. The store closed on April 8, 2018 and was the mall's last original anchor store to close. On April 9, 2018, Simon announced plans to redevelop the Sears site with a Life Time Fitness as well as new retail, entertainment, and apartments on three levels. It is one of the five malls owned by Simon with Sears anchors being redeveloped. The Sears anchor building was demolished in 2023. On August 22nd, 2025, Chuck's Arcade, an arcade owned by the parent company of Chuck E. Cheese, Opened In Brea Mall. Dick’s Sporting Goods announced that they would be opening a new store on the former Sears site. The store was set to become the new anchor tenant and opened in a newly constructed building. Dick’s Sporting Goods announced a grand opening in spring, 2026. The new store is two stories and opened on April 24, 2026. Anchors JCPenney (140,000 sq ft (13,000 m2)) Macy's (188,000 sq ft (17,500 m2)) Macy's Men's & Home (198,000 sq ft (18,400 m2)) Nordstrom (182,000 sq ft (16,900 m2)) Dick’s Sporting Goods (119,000 sq ft (11055 m²)) References External links Brea Mall Official Site
Brea Olinda High School

Brea Olinda High School is a 9th–12th grade public high school located in Brea, California. Established in 1927, the school was originally located across the street from the Brea Mall. In 1989, the school moved to its current location on the northern hills of Brea. Brea Olinda High School is a part of the Brea Olinda Unified School District. History Plans were made in 1924 to make a separate high school in Brea; some parents pushed back and insisted that their children remain at Fullerton Union High School. Construction commenced in 1926; despite some shortcomings by the original contractor, the $400,000 project was finished in time for the 1927–1928 school year. The school's initial enrollment was approximately 200 students and at the original location the school had a working farm as part of Future Farmers of America (FFA). By 1989, the school population had grown and the high school needed major renovations. The school district decided to construct the new Brea Olinda High School at 789 Wildcat Way, and it opened in September 1989. The new school location would not include a working farm as part of Future Farmers of America (FFA). Athletics BOHS football teams won CIF championships from 1959 to 1962, and again in 2018. The girls basketball team has won ten CIF State Championships. Performing arts Brea Olinda fields four competitive show choirs: the mixed-gender "Masquerade", the all-female "Spellbound" and "Tiffanys", and the all-male "Thundercats". The program hosts an annual competition, the California Classic.

Bright Star Wilderness

Bright Star Wilderness is a 8,190-acre (3,314 ha) wilderness area in Kern County in the U.S. state of California. The California Desert Protection Act of 1994 (Public Law 103–433) added the wilderness to the National Wilderness Preservation System and it is administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Bright Star Wilderness surrounds 5,090-foot (1,551 m) Kern County's Kelso Peak and drainages to the north, south and east, including Bright Star Canyon and Cortez Canyon. The Wilderness lies within the BLM's Jawbone-Butterbredt Area of Critical Environmental Concern in the higher Mojave Desert and protects much of the Piute Mountains, of the southern Sierra Nevada (not to be confused with the Piute Mountains to east in Mojave National Preserve). Vegetation A wide variety of vegetation grows in the Bright Star Wilderness. The upper slopes of Kelso Peak are dotted with Single-leaf piñon pine (Pinus monophylla) and California juniper (Juniperus californica), while the lower slopes are brushy and broken by large granite outcroppings. The valley below the peak is dense with Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia). See also List of U.S. Wilderness Areas Wilderness Act References External links "Bright Star Wilderness".

Briones Reservoir

Briones Reservoir is an open cut terminal water storage reservoir located in western Contra Costa County, in the East Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area, California. It is owned and operated by the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD). Geography The reservoir is in the Briones Hills, on the west side of Briones Regional Park and northeast of Orinda. It is impounded by Briones Dam, an earthen dam completed in 1964 (1964). The reservoir is the largest of EBMUD's five East Bay terminal reservoirs, with a total capacity of 60,510 acre⋅ft (74,640,000 m3), and it has a total watershed of 8.59 square miles (22 km2). Water Source The Briones Reservoir has two sources for its water, one local and one imported. Its watershed of 22 km2 includes the Bear Creek drainage. Bear Creek formerly flowed down the valley, which the reservoir partially submerges, and still enters from the eastern section. The major water source into the Briones Reservoir is imported from the Briones Diversion Works near Orinda. It is delivered through the Briones Aqueduct, a 7-foot, 6-inch steel pipe, operated by four pumps that can deliver up to 60 million gallons a day. This is water imported from EDMUD's biggest water source, the Mokelumne River in the San Joaquin Valley. Water then leaves Briones Reservoir and flows to the lower part of the valley and into San Pablo Reservoir. From there, the water is distributed by a pumping plant in Kensington. Recreation Because the water in the reservoir is mainly for human potable water uses, EBMUD is very strict about recreational activities. Fishing, swimming, and wading are not allowed. However, college rowing teams from Mills College, UC Berkeley and Saint Mary's College have permission to use the lake under certain rules, such as the inspection of all boats before use on the lake in order to prevent contamination. Two trails, the Bear Creek Trail and the Oursan Trail, together form a 14-mile (23 km) hiking trail loop that circumnavigates the reservoir. The trailhead is at the Bear Creek Staging Area, which is within Briones Regional Park. A Trail Use Permit issued by EBMUD is required for all hikers, which can be obtained online at the EBMUD website for $10. No mountain biking is permitted on the trail. Horseback riding is allowed. Dogs are allowed on the Oursan Trail segment only, and must be leashed.

Bristol Lake

Bristol Lake is een endoreïsch zoutmeer in de Mojavewoestijn. Het ligt in San Bernardino County, in het zuiden van de Amerikaanse staat Californië. Bristol Lake is endoreïsch omdat het water in het het meer niet uitstroomt in een zee of oceaan, maar gewoonweg verdampt, waardoor de bedding droog komt te liggen. In de winter staat er vaak wat water in het meer, maar de rest van jaar vormt het een zoutvlakte. De maximale lengte van het meer is ongeveer 23 km en de maximale breedte 20 km. Ligging Het meer bevindt zich net ten zuidoosten van Amboy, een verlaten plaatsje aan de Route 66, en ten noorden van Cadiz. De dichtstbijzijnde plaats van enige omvang is Twentynine Palms, dat 42 km verderop in het zuidwesten ligt. Amboy Crater en de Bullion Mountains liggen westelijk van het zoutmeer en de Old Woman Mountains oostelijk. Zoutwinning Sinds 1909 wordt er zout gewonnen van de bedding van Bristol Lake. Om bij het zout te komen is eerst het sediment van de bedding, dat bestaat uit klei, zand en gips, weggehaald en vervolgens in rijen opgestapeld. Er zijn twee zoutwinningsbedrijven actief bij het meer, waaronder Cargill Salt Company, de op een na grootste zoutproducent van de Verenigde Staten, die natriumchloride en calciumchloride produceert voor de industrie en voedingswaren.
Vincent Thomas Bridge

Die Vincent Thomas Bridge ist eine knapp zwei Kilometer lange Hängebrücke mit einer Hauptspannweite von 457,5 m, die den Hafen von Los Angeles überquert und im Zuge der California State Route 47 den Ort San Pedro mit Terminal Island verbindet. Die Brücke ist nach Vincent Thomas (1907–1980) benannt. Er war ein US-amerikanischer, demokratischer Politiker, der einstmals als kalifornischer Abgeordneter für den Wahlkreis San Pedro zuständig war. Während des Baus und in den Anfangsjahren nach ihrer Fertigstellung wurde das Bauwerk oft als „bridge to nowhere“ bezeichnet. In den 1970er-Jahren wurde ihre Bedeutung jedoch erheblich größer, als die Häfen von Los Angeles und Long Beach die Häfen der San Francisco Bay Area als Hauptumschlagsplätze für Seefracht an der Westküste ablösten. Heute wickelt die Brücke einen Großteil des Verkehrs von den südlichen Bezirken des Hafens in San Pedro zum Terminal Island Freeway und dann schließlich zum Südende des Long Beach Freeways ab; von dort wird Frachtgut zu den Güterbahnhöfen in East Los Angeles und Inland Empire transportiert. Als die Brücke 1963 eröffnet wurde, betrug die Maut 25 Cents in jede Richtung. Im Jahr 1983 wurde die Gebühr auf 50 Cent für westwärts gerichteten Verkehr erhöht, die Gegenrichtung wurde kostenlos befahrbar. Im Jahre 2000 wurde die Mautpflicht abgeschafft. Das Catalina Terminal (Berth 95), die Abgangsstelle für alle von San Pedro aus abgehenden Fähren und Hubschrauberverbindungen zur Santa Catalina Island, befindet sich unterhalb des westlichen Teils der Brücke. Die Brücke war Schauplatz einer Verfolgungsfahrt in dem Spielfilm Nur noch 60 Sekunden mit Nicolas Cage und in einer Szene in 3 Engel für Charlie, in der Cameron Diaz und Crispin Glover mit zwei Rennwagen aufeinander zufahren. Auch Leben und Sterben in L.A. (1985) macht ausgiebig Gebrauch von der Brücke, ebenso wie der Film Shelter (2007). Am 19. August 2012 stürzte sich der britische Filmregisseur Tony Scott von ihr zu Tode, nachdem er über den 5,5 Meter hohen Sicherheitszaun geklettert war, den man installiert hatte, um Selbstmorde zu verhindern.

Pont Vincent-Thomas

Le pont Vincent-Thomas est un pont suspendu de 460 m de long ouvert en 1963 qui franchit le port de Los Angeles en Californie (États-Unis) et relie Terminal Island à San Pedro. Il fait partie de la California State Route 47 (en). Il tient son nom de l'homme politique démocrate Vincent Thomas (en), qui représentait les 68e et 52e districts de San Pedro à l'Assemblée de l'État de Californie entre 1941 et 1979, et qui a défendu sa construction. C'est le quatrième plus long pont suspendu de Californie. Histoire Si le pont a été inauguré en 1963, Vincent Thomas a passé 19 ans à partir de 1940 à chercher à réunir toutes les autorisations nécessaires au chantier. Pendant ces années et celles qui suivirent la construction, le projet fut appelé péjorativement "Le pont vers nulle part" ("The bridge to nowhere"). C'est en sautant de ce pont que s'est suicidé le réalisateur, scénariste et producteur Tony Scott le 19 août 2012. Fiction Télévision Le pont apparaît dans Des sourires et des armes, l'épisode 5 de la saison 7 de Columbo. On y voit le Lieutenant Columbo traverser le pont en fin d'épisode alors que son enquête le mène sur le port de Los Angeles. Films Dans le film La Grande Casse, H. B. Halicki traverse le pont Vincent-Thomas au volant d'une Ford Mustang "Eleanor" de 1974, Nicolas Cage fera de même dans le remake du film sorti en 2000. Une scène de course de voitures de Charlie et ses drôles de dames (2000) est filmée sur ce pont. Dans le film Police fédérale, Los Angeles / (To Live and Die in L.A.) de William Friedkin, référence du polar des années 80, le personnage de Richard Chance (joué par William Petersen) s’élance dans le vide depuis ce pont dans un saut qui s'apparente à un suicide, avant qu'un élastique ne révèle qu'il s'agit simplement d'une recherche d'adrénaline. Jeux vidéo Le pont apparaît dans le jeu vidéo Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas sous le nom de Ocean Docks Bridge. Il réapparaît dans Grand Theft Auto V, cette fois sous le nom de Miriam Turner Overpass.

Vincent Thomas Bridge

Il Vincent Thomas Bridge è un ponte lungo 460 metri che attraversa il porto di Los Angeles, in California, collegando il quartiere di San Pedro a Terminal Island. Il ponte, parte della strada statale SR47 (State Route 47), è stato aperto nel 1963 e intitolato al deputato di San Pedro Vincent Thomas, che ne caldeggiò la costruzione. Fama Il ponte compare in diversi film, tra cui in varie sequenze di Vivere e morire a Los Angeles (1985), nelle inquadrature finali di Arma letale 2 (1989) e in Fuori in 60 secondi (2000) e Charlie's Angels (2000). Il 26 ottobre 1990, il tuffatore statunitense (medaglia di bronzo alle Olimpiadi del 1964) Lawrence Andreasen rimase ucciso saltando dalla torre ovest del ponte (111 metri) nel tentativo di stabilire un nuovo record di tuffo, tra l'altro già mancato nel precedente tentativo, risalente al 1988, da 49 metri dal Gerald Desmond Bridge (a qualche km dallo stesso Vincent Thomas Bridge). Il 19 agosto 2012, il regista britannico Tony Scott si è suicidato lanciandosi dal ponte.

Vincent Thomas-brug

De Vincent Thomas-brug (Engels: Vincent Thomas Bridge) is een 460 meter lange hangbrug over de haven van Los Angeles, in de Amerikaanse staat Californië. De brug verbindt de havenbuurt San Pedro met Terminal Island, een eiland tussen de haven van Los Angeles en die van Long Beach, en maakt deel uit van State Route 47. Ze opende in 1963 en is genoemd naar Vincent Thomas, een Californisch parlementariër die voor de bouw van de brug streed. Het is de op drie na langste hangbrug van Californië, na de Carquinezbrug en de twee delen van de San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. De Britse filmregisseur Tony Scott pleegde op 19 augustus 2012 zelfmoord door van de Vincent Thomas-brug te springen. Ook duiker Lawrence Andreasen, die in 1964 aan de Olympische Spelen meedeed, kwam om na een sprong van deze brug om zo een record neer te zetten. De politie had hem al eerder van een ander punt van de brug afgehaald, maar hij koos later de andere kant van de brug en deze duikpoging mislukte. In de populaire cultuur De Vincent Thomas-brug is prominent aanwezig in een aantal scènes uit To Live and Die in L.A. (1985), alsook in de slotscène van Lethal Weapon 2 (1989). Ze komt ook voor in films als Gone in 60 Seconds (1974), Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) en Charlie's Angels (2000). In de eerste aflevering van het derde seizoen van de Amerikaanse versie van Top Gear, in augustus 2012 uitgezonden op History, was de Vincent Thomas-brug de eindstreep voor een race tussen een Corvette-politiewagen en een Triumph-motorfiets.
