The last Eagle Rock house that my dad built was next to an old adobe style home, one of the oldest on our hill I would imagine. The nice old lady that lived in it seemed mysterious but friendly, I have vague recollections that she did something amazing when she was young, climbed Mt. Everest or something. I wish I had talked to her more! I never went into her house until after she had passed away but I loved looking at the exterior details, like this little guy on the garage door!
Did you see the op ed piece in the LA Times yesterday? Seems to reflect the same sentiment. http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-lovenheim-neighborhoods-20110408,0,4771533.story
