Oak of Peace

The General Andres Pico Oak Tree once stood in Rancho San Rafael in an area that later became part of the City of Glendale. This tree played a significant role in the history of California. On January 11, 1847, representatives of Los Estados Unidos Mexicanos and
the United States of America met under this tree to discuss terms for settlement of the dispute between the two countries. This conference led to California statehood in 1850.

The Pico Oak, also known as the Oak of Peace and the Treaty Oak, was designated a California Landmark in 1947. The tree has since died. The mosaic clock dials commemorate this historic Coast Live Oak.

The station clock was created by Los Angeles artist Lynn Goodpasture.
