CD1 will be convening a community meeting on March 22, 2018 to discuss the reuse of city-owned lots in Lincoln Heights to provide housing within District 1. Your input is valued and critical in shaping the future vision of Lincoln Heights, and I truly hope you will be able to join us at this meeting. Working together we can make a dent in the Housing Crisis, while providing much needed housing for the residents of Lincoln Heights.

Highland Park Heritage Trust Sycamore Grove
Walking Tour - February 24, 2018 - 10 a.m.
|
|
This tour explores the rich and varied architectural and social history of the Sycamore Grove area of Highland Park, one of Los Angeles’ oldest neighborhoods.
Located along the Arroyo Seco, Highland Park was created in 1870 by developers who purchased the territory from Spanish and Mexican landowners. Incorporated into Los Angeles in 1895, it quickly became a thriving part of the city, and was once home to both Occidental College and USC’s School of Fine Arts. At the beginning of the twentieth century, the Arroyo Seco was a center of the nation’s emerging Arts and Crafts movement, and was home to one of Los Angeles’ first great preservationists, naturalist Charles Fletcher Lummis. Highland Park -Garvanza has the city’s largest historic district (Historic Preservation Overlay Zone) with approximately 2,500 structures.
