When I was born, we lived in a house that my Dad designed in Beverlywood, an area south of Beverly Hills, in Los Angeles. I don't remember the house because we moved to nearby Beverly Hills when I was two years old. However, the house is still there and I drive by it often. It still looks great and very much the same, except the landscaping is very lush now.

Beverlywood is a very nice area of Los Angeles. There are good schools, stores, restaurants, markets and bakeries nearby. I've lived my entire life on the edges of this neighborhood, so I feel very at home here. Which area of Los Angeles is "home" to you?

Home to me is the Rancho Park area of WLA...near Pico and Overland. We've got EVERYTHING!!

Rancho Park
I had a friend who lived in Beverlywood and I loved his house and neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteI've only lived here 15 years, but "home" will always be my own beloved 'wood--Hollywood.
Still waiting to make that trip to California! Love the pics.

I recognize that house!! I think I pass it when I take the back route to/from work. :) Funny how it hasn't changed (much).
ReplyDeleteI've been here 12 years; I guess "home" is the 'hood - anywhere along Pico, between La Brea and Fairfax.
