Notes
  • Significance: The Los Pinetos NIKE site played an integral role in the Los Angeles Defense Area from 1955 to 1958. Los Pinetos is unique among Nike sites in the Los Angeles area in that the launch, administrative, and battery control facilities are located within a single line-of-site. This is also an unusual feature nationwide, because the battery control facilities were generally located in an area remote from other facilities. As a result, Los Pinetos presents a powerful visual representation of an operative Nike site within a single line-of-site. Los Pinetos, along with Mt. Gleason, experienced the full range of the Nike development, including conversion from conventional Ajax to the nuclear capable Hercules missile.
