SUMMARY:ANGELINO HEIGHTS AND CARROLL AVENUE TIME TRAVEL TRIP
DESCRIPTION:Angelino Heights is the living\, beating heart of Victorian Los Angeles\, a nearly perfect late 19th century neighborhood where time seems to stand still. \nBut the historic district—including every location scout’s favorite Carroll Avenue—is actually the happy result of decades of carefully planned house moving\, vintage streetlight sourcing\, power line burial\, design guideline crafting and passionate advocacy by local preservationists. They did such a terrific job that it looks as if it’s always been this way.   \nEsotouric invites you to take an immersive trip back in time into Angelino Heights\, on a walk that tells the stories of the early Los Angeles neighborhood\, its notable characters\, landscape and landmarks\, and the visionary Angelenos who invented new tools to protect and improve the district. \nStarting from the foot of Angelino Heights on Sunset Boulevard\, where the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul operated the city’s first hospital\, we’ll set out to discover Angelino Heights’ rich and compelling cultural\, architectural\, historic preservation and true crime history. You’ll see fascinating bits of Victorian infrastructure both original and salvaged\, get to know colorful locals like the artist Leo Politi\, discover the architects who shaped this early streetcar suburb\, see where little Marion Parker was held in the kidnapping case that captivated the nation\, and enjoy a stroll among some of the most beautiful and eclectic residences in town. \nThis walking tour is illustrated with rare photos you can view on your smartphone. \n\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				MEETING INSTRUCTIONS\nTour begins at 10:30am sharp\, with check-in time 10am just south of Farm Cup Coffee under the Elysian apartments\, at 1115 Sunset Blvd.\, Los Angeles\, CA 90012.

SUMMARY:HIGHLAND PARK ARROYO TIME TRAVEL TRIP (RICHARD’S BIRTHDAY)
DESCRIPTION:Come take a walk back through time in one of our favorite early Los Angeles suburbs: Highland Park\, down around the Arroyo. We’ll begin the adventure at El Alisal\, the Pueblo Revival / Craftsman style home of author\, preservationist and civic booster Charles Fletcher Lummis. Following a tour of the house museum and tales of The Old Man’s advocacy for saving Southern California landmarks\, documenting traditional recipes and songs\, and recognizing Native American achievements in art and architecture\, we’ll set out on a stroll around the lower Arroyo\, for tales of fascinating characters\, remarkable buildings and places where the past is so very present you can almost kiss it. \nOn our walk\, we’ll explore Griffin Avenue\, part of an early subdivision\, and share stories of crimes and oddities that took place there. And we’ll stop at the one-time home of Florencio Morales\, to honor the neighborhood hero folk artist whose wild holiday displays were a citywide sensation in the early 1990s. \nWe’ll stop outside the Arturo and Mabel Bilderrain House (1912)\, an unusual\, transitional home that blends the then popular Craftsman and Mission Revival styles with elements that reflect the inward facing adobe culture of the Spanish Colonial-era\, to learn about the famous pet rooster\, and ascend 40 steps to see the landmarked Young-Gribling Residence (R.B. Young\, 1885) and enjoy fabulous city views in the company of California historian and neon sign maker Paul Greenstein\, who restored both homes. \nAnd we’ll visit Heritage Square\, the living history museum of rescued buildings\, to hear about the tragedy of the landmarked mansions The Castle and The Salt Box that were moved from Bunker Hill. And we’ll hear some much happier historic preservation success stories. Plus you’ll get to see Heritage Square’s vintage Los Angeles streetlight boneyard\, with rare lamps awaiting future restoration. \nThis walking tour is illustrated with rare photos you can view on your smartphone. \n\n\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				CHECK-IN DETAILS:\nTour begins at 10:30am sharp\, with check-in time 10am at Lummis House\, 200 East Avenue 43\, Los Angeles\, CA 90031.
