There are many like towns. The original main street runs up Manhattan Beach Boulevard, coming up to the Pier - the focal point for Manhattan Beach .. The commercial district has not changed much over the years. I have been back in the 1960 & # 39; s, with many small shops, boutiques and restaurants.
In the summer, they have concerts in Hollywood Park. In October, they have the great pumpkin races where they have concerts in Hollywood Park. The streets are closed off, and they have everything from toddlers on tricycles to professional bike racers There 's also the Hometown Fair in October, the Volleyball Tournament called "The 6 - Man", a surf contest, and Junior Lifeguard (a big program at the beach where there are competitions are held among the junior guards).
There is a beautiful Shade Hotel downtown. It is redeveloped from an old Metlox pottery site; there are some very nice high-class restaurants and other hotels there.. Property values, Manhattan Beach is incredibly convenient Manhattan Beach is incredibly convenient. It's a lot of the volleyball and surf contests have put manhattan beach on the map. It 's perfect place to live if you do not want the city lifestyle but have to work in the city. Because it is close to the airport and to the all arteries.
There is the Sand Section where you are more than six feet from your next door Manhattan Beach is two square miles on each side. There are lots of walk streets which are wonderful for families, relieving a lot of the beach congestion because they & # 39; re non-drivable streets. When you live in the Sand Section, there is El Porto. El Porto used to be a separate city, but it was incorporated into Manhattan Beach and now it & # 39; s just called the North End.
Another area is called the Tree Section, so called by of the streets - Elm, Oak, Pine and so on. Different areas of the Tree Section has their own dependent character dependent on where they are and where they are & # 39; re built based on the topography. There are a lot of small nuances within the Tree Section adding great differences as desirability.
There are the Hill Section, which is aptly named because it & # 39; s built on what used to be the sand dunes - literally! Some areas of the Hill Section have stunning views and a lot of the lots are larger.
The Mira Costa area, called so much of the high school in that district, has a lot of variation in large size and size of homes - it 's very large property area.
Lastly there is Liberty Village, the more newly built Manhattan Village, and the South Sand Section, which is very different from the North Sand Section.
