No, it's not Angelino Heights...it's Welcome Hill in SoFa!

You didn't know there was anything so pristine and gorgeous in the South of the Freeway district of Echo Park, did you? This Queen Anne and its later neighbor are the crown jewels of our Welcome Hill. They share a view of the of downtown skyline from their front windows. The Queen Anne (the yellow one) is renovated inside as well to the Victorian period. Note the sign denotes it as the corner of Welcome St. and Council. From here, one can walk down the old steps on Council St. and catch a Glendale Boulevard bus downtown as residents of our street have done for about 125 years.
For a tour of the area and to share my research of Welcome Street's history, contact me.
