[edit] History
The mouth of Santa Ynez Canyon at the Pacific Ocean was one home of Inceville, an early 1900's film studio. Filming ceased at the property around 1922 and the buildings burned to the ground in 1924. In 1921, the land that is now known as Palisades Palisades was purchased by Methodists. Over time, roads that were named after Methodist missionaries were developed and land was settled. Housing development in the Highlands is now reaching its final stage as residences are being built at the highest point at the northeast border between Pacific Palisades and Topanga State Park. The Highlands are the most recent large-scale development in Pacific Palisades.
