Cypress Park Homes for Sale

Cypress Park is a densely populated, 82.1% Latino neighborhood of 10,000+ residents in Northeast Los Angeles, California. It is the site of the Rio de Los Angeles State Park and other recreational facilities.  Cypress Park is a early home for the Latino Population and is rich in heritage and history.

The neighborhood is situated at the confluence of the Los Angeles River and Arroyo Seco, less than 2.5 miles north of Downtown Los Angeles. It lies within a historic alluvial floodplain shared with the Elysian Valley neighborhood, which is bounded by Elysian Park and Mt. Washington.

One of the attractive aspects of this neighborhood are the California bungalows that make up the vast majority of the housing in the area. These older homes with their low roofs and shady walk-up terraced entrances evoke pre-WWII Los Angeles. Despite the below average incomes here, the homes are well-kept, with leafy front lawns and along wide laned of streets of the kind developers looking to pack more homes into smaller spaces don’t design anymore.

 how-much-is-your-home-worth

The Wilshire strip attracts and serves automobile traffic as well as pedestrian shoppers. When initially developed, major retailers such as Desmond’s, Silverwood’s, May Co., Coulter’s, Mullen & Bluett, Myer Siegel, and Seibu spread down Wilshire Boulevard from Fairfax to La Brea. The architecture of the buildings has larger, bolder, simpler signage and longer buildings in a larger scale.  The Miracle Mile building forms are driven by the stylistic language of Art Deco and Streamline Moderne.

Washington, D.C. 235

The 1939 Streamline Moderne May Company Building marks the western border of the Miracle Mile and “Museum Row”.

The Miracle Mile became one of Los Angeles’s most desirable areas. Acclaimed as “America’s Champs-Élysées,” this stretch of Wilshire near the La Brea Tar Pits was named “Miracle Mile” for its improbable rise to prominence. Although the preponderance of shopping malls and the development in the 1960s of financial and business districts in downtown and Century City lessened the Miracle Mile’s importance as a retail and business center, the area has retained its vitality thanks to the addition of several museums and commercial high-rises.

The Miracle Mile contains the most museums in all of Southern California.  Notably it contains The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), Petersen Automotive Museum, A+D Museum, Craft and Folk Art Museum, George C.
