ESTATE Continued from Al Forming a fast bond, the two began their search for a home as they contemplated marriage. And j~t as one couple was coming together; another was falling apart -publicly. Qmck Finley, who once pitched for the Anaheim Angels, and Thwny Kitaen, his actress wife, wrapped up construction on the home just as the couple's domestic strife made headlines. In September, Kitaen agreed to undergo anger management classes; prosecutors said she had assaulted Finley with a stiletto-heeled shoe. As a result of t'1e couple's breakup, they put their Pelican COMMENTS Continued from Al entertainment, a fireworlcs display, and the first 2,000 people who show up will get a slice of the official anniversary cake, which was sealed in a time-capsule burled in Lion's Paik on June 29, 1953. That's a lie. I made the ti.me capsule part up. But the first 2,000 people really will get a piece of cake, which will be brand new. You've heard a lot about the history of Costa Mesa lately, but I want to give you the real deal, the inside story, the interesting stuff nobody ever tells you about how Costa Mesa came to be -a job to whlch I am particularly well-suited, since I was five years old in 1953 and busy stealing Raisinets and Black Cows from candy stores in the Bronx. Until the 1830s, Costa Mesa was in Seal Beach. Between the horses and the wagons and people on foot slogging their way back and forth on the San Diego Freeway everyday, it was a nightmare. Finally, a man named Eddie Fairview called everyone together and said, "You know what? This bites." Everyone agreed. "Why don't we just move the whole thing down there? It's beautiful and roomy and there's always a nice breeze. What do you say1" "OK," they sald. Then everybody cheered. Right after they all got here, Eddie opened a hotel, whlch became so famous for its hot springs that soon the whole area came to be known as "Fairview." Some years later, an Italian woman named Paolina Paularlno showed up and opened a caf~ that served the best latt6 and biscotti, especially the ones with the hazelnuts and the whlte chocolate, In Orange County. On the weekends, people from as far away as Brea and Allso Viejo would line up for blocks and soon, the area around what is now Bristol and Bak.er would become known as Paularlno. In 1860, a retired merchant seam.an named Jedidiah Harper showed up. He was a quiet man who kept to himself and eked out a living towing flatbed barges laden with peopJe, livestock. dry goods and designer band~ up and down the Santa An.a River. But In the awn.mer, people from fat and wide would come to rldo Harpe(a Ferry. It became to famou. by 1859 that the entire area came to be caDed •Harper." Yem puaed. By 1920, both Paolina 1 Hill home on the market. They first listed it for just under $15 million in August, but pulled it off the market and re-listed it in February for just under $11 million. ~You can tell by the price that it's a special property," said Bill Cote of Cote Realty Group, the agency that listed the property. "It's one of the best pieces of property in Orange County." When Stearns heard the house was on the market again -he had even looked at it with Burbano earlier -he quickly c;ubmitted an offer. The seven-bedroom. 13,000 square-foot home. which counts nine bathrooms, makes for a stunning sight. The Tuscan-style, three-story home has a 12·car subterranean Paularino's Cafe and Harper's Ferry were long gone, and people adopted the name "Costa Mesa" -a Chumash Indian term fo r "shopping on the coast." 33 years later, the election of June 29, 1953 made it official, legal, incorporated. so forth and so one. And the rest, as they say, is the rest. So what about the Happy Birthday song? It all started in the mid· 1800's with two sisters from Kentucky, Mildred J. Hill and Patty Smith Hill. or as their friends called them, Mildred and Patty. Both the Hill girls had long careers as teachers and educators. Patty, who was a faculty member at Columbia University, developed a learning system oalled the "Patty Hill Blocks" that became a national model for kindergartens and elementary schools aGross the country. Mildred Hill was both a teacher and an accomplished musician. ln 1893, while Mildred was teaching and Patty was principal at the "Louisville Experimental Kindergarten School." Patty wanted a cheerful ditty that even the most unmusical teachers and kids could sing to start the day. Mildred came up with the simple. repetitive melody that we know as "Happy Birthday to You " and Patty added the lyrics: "Good morning to you ... Good morning to you ... Good morning, dear children . .. Good morning to all.~ I don't know why she switched to "Good morning to all" in the last line either, but I guess you had to be there. Within months, classrooms across the country were ringing with "Good Morning to All." By the way, for those of you old enough to remember It, we're not talking about "Good Morning to You" here, whlch ls another song. Not long after, someone decided Mildred and Patty's simple song also worked great for birthday celebrations and changed the lyrics to "Happy Birthday To You." Today, it's been translated and used as a birthday song around the world. So what does any or this have to do with Costa Mesa's SOth or the United Statea of America'a"227th1 Not a thing, ofcoune .

The house, which sits inside a gated community, has never been occupied. ~vou would not be able to duplicate that house now,• said Strada Properties' agent Marcy Weinstein, who represented Steams. "The house took years and years to create.· Once he opened escrow to purchase the house, Steams hatched his plan. He would propose to Burbano in the master bedroom. Sprinkling rose petals on a floor surrounded with lighted candles, Steams waited for his girlfriend to enter the house Burbano's KTLA bosses, cooperating with the energet ic Stearns, sent her to the house under a pretext to do a celebri1y homes story. A camera crew was waiting with Stearns for her. "Glenn put himself under d lot of pressure." Burbano sa1<.l "Ours has been a storybook [relationship) from the beginning.''

And if you jusl ask some of those who have been part of Costa Mesa's first half-century of civic life, it probably has flown by. But here we are at the 50th year of cityhood with so much to celebrate, so much to still do and lots of reasons to reflect. Let's stan with the last. It all staned with a population boom after World War II that took the city from its farm and "Goal Hill" roots to a booming municipality tha1 would one day house one of the most successful recail centers in the nation, a performing an center and theacer company to rival Broadway. a thriving county (air and a bustling and respected community college. The makeup of its people has evolved from ranch hands and ranch owners to a flavorful ethnic mix of Old World European to Tongan. Latino and Asian. African and Native Americans. Cosca Mesa is now a thriving community of affluent homes on one end and low-income apartment housing on the other. It's a community that features Neiman Marcus on one e nd and Grant Boys sporting goods on the other. It's a communJty that boasts a downtown square in the shape of a triangle on one end and a bridge so intricace that it is itself a piece of an on the other. Costa Mesans are civic-minded and trendy and compassionate, yet frugal. It's a community of soup kitchens and charities, an anti-mall, a model-train ride and the best darn fish caco rescauram around. But it's also a community at a crossroads -a community divided by those who seek change and improvement to those who love the city's eclectic and free-spirited traditions. It's a community grappling with how to d eal with a changing population, many of whom are new immigrants to this country. It's a community whose very n ame comes from the sea, but bemoans there nol a beach within its limits. It's a community with outstanding city leadership and some left to be desired. A community with top-notch schools and those struggling to overcome sometimes insurmountable odds. Since its beginnings in 1953. Costa Mesa has been seeking a path of progress. In 2003, we can say it is safely on that path. With 50 years under its belt, this community has learned a lot and will continue to learn so much more. Happy birthday, Costa Mesa, and here's to the future. We're just glad to be here to chronicle il all. Newport Coast resort will fit area perfectly U p and down the Orange County coasc, luxury resorts are popping up like diamonds in a (well-groomed) rough. Huntington Beach has the Hilton. Laguna Beach has the Montage. Monarch Beach and Dana Point have the St. Regis and Ritz Carlton. Newport Beach just goc the new Balboa Bay Oub and Reson. Now Newpon Coasc is set to join the party. Within the next few years, if all goes according to plan, the Irvine Hill, a luxury stop with 204 guest rooms in 40 bungalows, 52 vacation homes, 68 shared-ownership villas, a spa and a new golf club house. There wiU be challenges, of course. Although the project is not affecced by the city's growth-control Greenlight law, residents are certain -and right -to raise con cerns about possible traffic and environmen tal problems. And the lrvine Co. wUl be wise to ensure that the construction ls sensitive to the surrounding area, which includes Cryscal Cove State Parle, and that the process is open to review. Why? Because if company officials do so, this looks to be a project that fits this area perfectly. . Newport-Mesa, with its world-class beaches, its shopping -from South Coast Plaza to Fashion "Island -and its fine dining, is the perfect spot for a high-class resort. With such a climate, it is amazing that until this month, with the Bay Oub's reopening, there was no Four Seasons, while luxurious. doesn't have the full-run amenities of a resort.) The benefits go beyond the perks for visitors, of course. The resort will pump money into the city's budget, and those visitors are cenain to spend money while they are here, add ing co the area's tourist -based economy. It is a project that just makes sense. And one that will make dollars, too. It should be one that residents of the Newport-Mesa area support.
