We are located three miles north of downtown Los Angeles, just a couple of miles from Dodger Stadium, and adjacent to the Los Angeles River.
We are neighbors to Atwater Village on our north, Silverlake and Echo Park to our west, Cypress Park on our east, and Elysian Park on our southwest.
Our serene and close-knit community is a haven for a diverse range of residents, from families to artists. The scenic bike and pedestrian path along the river, along with our beautiful parks, draws nature enthusiasts and visitors alike. We are proud of our vibrant neighborhood.
