SUMMARY:Mystery of the Ship's Anchor - Finally Solved!
DESCRIPTION:For over 30 years, South Bay residents have driven past a large ship’s anchor in front of a white Greek revival office building located on the corner of Carson St. and Del Amo Circle East – smack dab between the two sides of the Del Amo Fashion Center. Yet few know the history of this 18-foot, 16-ton ship’s anchor that has been dry-docked here for over three decades.<br/>The Torrance Historical Society has invited Kevin M. Anthoney, maritime and ocean liner historian, writer and shipboard speaker, to unravel the mystery of this landmark, which took him two-and-a-half years of research and investigation.  His efforts of discovery have been recognized by the Maritime Historical community, and have been published.<br/>Mr. Anthoney is a southern California native, former South Bay resident, graduate of Palos Verdes High School and has a Bachelor’s Degree in Business from Cal State University, Long Beach.<br/>
