Remember Back to the Future? Well, the high-school scenes of Hill Valley H.S. in 1955 and 1985, including the exteriors for the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance, were filmed at Whittier High School. Alma mater of Richard Nixon. WHS' Vic Lopez Auditorium hosts not only Whittier High's drama department, but also concerts of the Whittier Regional Symphony, Wurlitzer Organ concerts, and other community events.
Operated by the Whittier Historical Society. It contains exhibits on the early history of Whittier, and contains archives on Whittier history.
The parade scene in the final episode of The Wonder Years was filmed at the corner of Greenleaf Avenue and Philadelphia Street. Kevin (Fred Savage) is standing under the awning of the former Rocky Cola Cafe. He crosses Philadelphia to meet Paul (Josh Saviano) as a parade goes by. Parades actually do go down Greenleaf, but they're usually Christmas parades.
