When it was founded by Abbot Kinney (a man who made his fortune in the tobacco industry) back in 1905, he named it after Venice, Italy because he intended Venice Beach to be a seaside resort town like that Italian city. Though Venice Beach experienced lows in its history even being dubbed the Slum by the Sea back in the 1950s because of neglect by Los Angeles authorities Venice Beach is now considered one of the most dynamic yet eclectic of places in Southern California.
