La Crescenta's roots started with a Doctor and his dream.  Around the early 1880's a doctor by the name of Benjamin Briggs decided to find the ideal climate for his horticultural pursuits.  It was the Canada Valley that struck his interest, so he decided to make the long trek from the midwest to what you now know as La Crescenta.
