The Dominguez Rancho Adobe is California Historical Landmark Number 152, and in 1976 was placed on the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of the Interior. The adobe of Manuel Dominguez, on the Spanish land grant of Rancho San Pedro, was completed in 1826.
This was a big surprise that I'm glad I got to experience. I didn't know much about the museum, and when I drove up to the gate (through an industrial area) I saw a beautiful driveway along a tree-lined road. The docent was interesting and clearly loves the history of Dominguez Rancho. I highly recommend doing the tour and learning about the history of the south bay area. And, lots of antiques, check out the Victor record player.

The house at 2336 E 126th St, Compton, California is widely recognized as part of Dr. Dre’s early life history. It’s often referred to by fans as his “childhood home” because Andre Romell Young (Dr. Dre) grew up in Compton during his early years. This location is a modest residential property in the Willowbrook/Compton area, and it represents the environment where Dre spent part of his childhood before becoming one of the most influential figures in hip-hop.
