Woodland Hills History
Little is known about the Chumash Indians, who
were this community’s earliest settlers. When
the first white men rode in with the Portola
Expedition in 1769 to explore the beautiful hills
and valleys, they encountered the Indians and
called the area the Valley of the Oaks. It was in
this area, now named Woodland Hills, that the
treaty was signed to end the Mexican War. This
cleared the way for California to be admitted to
the union in 1850 as the 31st state.
When Victor Girard Kleinberger first laid eyes
on the rolling grasslands with pools of water, he
called it the “ dream city.” A visionary and entrepreneur, he foresaw a large population and a thriving
economy in the town he named Girard, as he later came to call himself. Girard was an ambitious man
who had a penchant for deceit. In 1922, Girard and Boulevard Land Company purchased 2,886 acres,
which was subdivided into 6,000 lots. Girard sold thousands of small lots to families in a farming area
where 80 acre parcels had more typically been sold. To expedite land sales in his new town in 1923,
Girard erected gates, a mosque tower, and a business district with rows of stones with false fronts to
convey the impression of a flourishing economy. Later, in an attempt to hold off bankruptcy and his
creditors, Girard attached liens to all the property he sold without informing the buyers!
In spite of his unscrupulous methods, Girard
believed in the town and the land, and his plan
worked. His advertisements in the newspaper
did, in fact, attract new residents and businesses,
and a great deal of new construction was
initiated. He beautified the area by importing
and planting more than 120,000 eucalyptus,
sycamore, fir, pine and pepper trees. Years later,
as the trees grew, it was appropriate to change
the town’s name to Woodland Hills. With the
country in the throes of the Depression, Girard’s
“super community” crumbled. Despite the forlorn
economic state of Woodland Hills, in which only
75 families remained, the town survived. Large
family landholders moved in, including Harry
Warner of Warner Brothers Pictures.
