According to the Story of Cerritos: "In 1971 there was a proposal to build a Polynesian cultural center that would feature an artificial ocean with six islands and a volcano that would erupt nightly. The developers guaranteed that the volcano would be non air-polluting, but the idea was still very unpopular with neighboring home owners." The Cerritos Towne Center was built instead.
