What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in Redondo Beach
Over half the housing here is attached, and most condos or townhomes near the shore have factory-built gas units. North Redondo is the place for older masonry. A report is organized by building type, so a townhome owner is not left reading about brick. Low clouds gather through May and June, and salt stays in the air by the shore. Frost is rare, so it never does much here. A fault lies several miles inland, the Newport-Inglewood, reason enough to log cracks in an older North Redondo chimney.
