134 Years: Chatsworth Hits Milestone Anniversary

CHATSWORTH, CA — Chatsworth celebrated its 134th anniversary of the neighborhood's founding on Thursday, and the Chatsworth Historical Society will host a commemorative celebration on Tuesday.

The celebratory program will be hosted at the Homestead Acre, located at 10385 Shadow Oak Drive, and on Zoom at 6:30 p.m. Visit the society's Facebook page for the Zoom meeting ID.

Tuesday's presentation will help residents "travel through time" with historic photos and landmark information, according to the society's Facebook page.

George R. Crow on March 10, 1888 filed a map of Chatsworth Park — named after the Duke of Devonshire's English estate called "Chatsworth House" — with the Los Angeles County Recorder's Office. At this time, Chatsworth was planned as a farming community, according to the Chatsworth Historical Society.

Last year's presentation included a walk through Chatsworth's history from 1888 on and showing photos of neighborhood landmarks like the first school, train station, the Chatsworth Hotel/Inn, the Chatsworth community church and more.
