San Pedro’s Sunken City, 1941. Once the site of a neighborhood of homes lining Paseo Del Mar, this cliff adjacent to Point Fermin Park began to slip into the sea in the late 1920’s, and was fenced off and abandoned. (Click here for a satellite view of the area)

Want to get the straight dope on L.A.’s secret attractions and hidden adventures? Tumblr is throwing an L.A.-centric event at the Hub L.A. on February 23rd, in which a panel of bloggers (including yours truly) will discuss all of this, and probably more. How do you get in on the action? Just drop a note right here: rsvp@tumblr.com

I’ll see you there.
