Echo Park is still seedy and run down, otherwise slumming hipsters and starving artists/musicians wouldn't be hanging out down there. Here's a short blurb I wrote a while ago...

Note that Soap Plant is the same La Luz Gallery that LLT references. It's in stumbling distance of Tiki-Ti. Do not miss it !! I've bought hundreds of dollars in books there while in a drunken rum stupor. :)

Also you're in the vicinity of Griffith Park Observatory, one of THE definitive mid-century Los Angeles icons.
