Silverlake
About Sliverlake

It’s known for its restaurant, clubs, and weekly art walks. Walt Disney’s first studio was actually built here. The population is diverse and well educated.

glassell park
About Glassell Park
Glassell Park is hugged by the I-5 to the west and the Glendale freeway to the North. In 1907, Andrew Glassell received the part of Rancho San Rafael that would later become Glassell Park. It’s a diverse neighborhood bordered by Atwater Village, Eagle Rock and Glendale. Lately it’s taken on community characteristics of Los Feliz and Echo Park -- a more gentrified and diverse neighborhood burgeoning into something unique and wonderful.
eagle rock
About Eagle Rock
Unsurprisingly, yet completely fittingly -- it’s named after a large rock resembling a soaring eagle. A bit of a secluded valley of waving hills and windy roads, it’s nestled between Glendale, Highland Park and Glassell Park in northeastern Los Angeles. Eagle Rock still preserves the charm of historic architecture with Craftsmen, Georgian, Streamline Moderne, Art Deco and Mission Revival homes that capture the beauty and history of bygone years.
downtown
About Downtown
Quickly becoming the place to be. Los Angeles’ central business district has seen a drastic makeover in recent years becoming an increasingly hip and affluent neighborhood. The prospects of the future may soon equal the past. During its heyday in the 1920’s it was known as the “Wall Street of the West.” More recently the area has been revitalized by the construction of the Staples Center, Nokia Theater, and an additional $1.8 billion dollars in real estate development. From loft living to nuanced neighborhoods, downtown has something great to offer everyone.

About Pasadena/Altadena
Just north of Pasadena, Altadena provides an escape from the big city atmosphere of Los Angeles. It’s renowned for Christmas Tree Lane -- a holiday attraction since 1920 on the strip of Santa Rosa avenue adorned with Christmas lights; and it’s one of the oldest venues of its kind in the world. Mount Lowe Railway, now a historical sight, was once used to transport passengers through the scenic route to the San Gabriel Mountains.
