Glendale Tool Company
The Glendale Tool Company is a small 501(c)3 educational non-profit corporation in Glendale, California. Housed in an Cold War-era aerospace hangar, it provides several services to the community:
- Research labs to engage the young and old in new forms of scientific thinking
- Consulting for businesses and governments, finding new ways to solve old problems
- Mentoring for future scientists
The company of course is best known for its innovations in government and civic policy, coming up with (and helping fund) such ideas as:
- New street lights and signals for better pedestrian safety
- The Los Angeles Peseta, a proposed regional currency combining cryptocurrency with physical tokens.
- Possibly the best safe, legal fireworks show in the city
Founded by employees of the Montague Foundation, a think tank spinoff of the famous Montague Aviation empire, the Glendale Tool Company focuses on the immediate, practical issues facing the Greater Los Angeles area.
