Owner's Map of Los Angeles
Freelance Set Painter by trade in the film industry. I used to work at all the studios. I purchased my first home in Echo Park Canyon due to it's convenience to everything. Echo Park is the first Suburb of Downtown LA. It's an extremely well designed community. This is why it was voted '2008 - Best Neighborhood in the USA' by the APA (American Planning Association). The only community in the state of California that rated. Its proximity to the Elysian Park (wilderness preserve) on one end Echo Lake/Park on the other. The 2 and 5 freeways to the North, 101 and 110 to the South. So many places to walk to and nice neighbors that greet you along the way.
