Mr. Grover laid out streets in a grid pattern, naming three popular beaches of the time and set aside land for a train depot, a hotel and a city park. Today, Amtrack stops in Grover Beach twice a day at the new Multimodal Facility.

On August 1, 1887 D.W. Grover filed plans at the San Luis Obispo County Court House and founded what would become the City of Grover City.

The 35 year old lumber man from Santa Cruz is said to have paid $22, 982 in gold to John Michael Price, the founder of Pismo Beach.
