Cornell is an unincorporated community in the Santa Monica Mountains, within western Los Angeles County, California.[1] It is located 5 miles (8.0 km) west of Agoura Hills and around 2.5 miles (4.0 km) north of Malibu.[1][2] Cornell's heyday was the 1910s to the 1950s, and the settlement is now essentially a ghost town but a handful of buildings and one functioning restaurant persisted circa 2007.[3]
