San Francisco is an excellent city to commute by motorcycle. The Civic Center BART station is nearly unusable, and at rush hour you can watch 3 No. 5 buses completely full pass you by before one lets you on.

Meanwhile, you can get from the Ferry building to the beach in like 20 minutes on a motorcycle. And park pretty much wherever you want.

My two favorites are the ones in Highland Park and Valley Glen. I voted for Valley Glen because of that living room and spacious front yard.

Altadena has some interesting older homes at a (relatively) affordable price point… but it also has no sidewalks, sketchy schools and is just as rundown as Highland Park (without any of the hip cafes or nightlife.)

Highland Park is hideous. The cost to undo the "renovations" would probably be prohibitive. This house must have been screwed up before HP became an HPOZ or it fell outside of that zoning.

I keep saying Altadena is the best kept secret in LA. Here you have a super charming home in original condition with plenty of room to add-on in back, where it won’t screw up the look of the neighborhood. And it’s affordable.

Highland Park. Nice house with lots of real house amenities like parking, laundry, storage in what looks to be a decent close-in neighborhood for a really reasonable price. Bet it sells quick

it’s by design. these leftist cunts are hellbent on the destruction of society. this is part of their strategy to equalise society.

i had some worthless black kid perform 10 minutes of half-assed work, then bill us for two hours of labour. didn’t even complete the job (collecting rubbish in a car park). this was booked via taskrabbit. have the entire incident captured on cctv.

the sjw cunts at taskrabbit refused to discuss the matter, banned our account, and still pester us for payment (on a daily basis via automated emails).

the bank refunded the transaction immediately, they couldn’t believe what happened (taskrabbit ended up losing the chargeback dispute). there’s no doubt in my mind this was 100% race/class related.

this is america in 2019, especially the libtarded states. the loser, bum, drug addict, etc. is raised above the engineer, capitalist, or any productive memeber of society.

The NYT writer makes a more serious error of judgment beyond the anecdotal view of Greater Los Angeles. There is a passage that says, "Like many neighborhoods in central and east Los Angeles, Echo Park has seen rapid gentrification and price increases over the past decade; today it is shifting from a majority Latino neighborhood to one that is more racially diverse." Let us be clear that gentrification can never be presented in the same positive tone as racial diversity when it is in fact destroying the very concept of diversity! The practice of destroying affordable housing or severely increasing rents on buildings inhabited by a largely Latino population is not an acceptable way to blend a community. There is more that could be said about how LA’s neighborhoods became so uniquely divided, but this is neither time nor place. As a former resident of New York state (briefly), I also enjoy NYC as a guest, and upon my first visit made Los Angeles my home. Watch your mouth and mind your facts when you speak about this town – even when exposing its faults.

So applying this to the property in Echo Park featured in a Curbed post earlier this week, it is a 10-unit rent control building and the developer wants to build 70 units. So instead, the City or some other organization would buy it and keep the 10 units. How does that help alieviate the overall housing shortage and lower rental prices. That keeps rent control for the lucky 10 in the building but results in higher rental prices across the board for everyone else.

The community paseo is basically a private park for the residents! But….

Perhaps they’ll invite/allow camping in the paseo; then, they could have 100 residents! What a bargain at just $34m.

Don’t let the secret get out about this almost perfect neighborhood—plenty of vintage houses which haven’t been too horribly messed with, walking distance to Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s, no street crime, superior city services and a diverse mix of residents. If you want to go feel cool, Echo Park, Silver Lake, HLP, Atwater are all within 5 miles. There are some absolutely stunning Spanish in the neighborhood but they rarely go on the market, . Yes, the 134 is a bit intrusive, but not nearly as much as it is in the better parts of Eagle Rock.
