City of Los Angeles' Historic Preservation Overlay Zones
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The city of Los Angeles, California has been hailed by historic preservation advocates for its pioneering Historic Preservation Overlay Zone program, which designates not just buildings but entire neighborhoods or districts as worthy of historic preservation. Most of these districts are areas dominated by Victorian and Craftsman single-family houses, but some are predominantly Mission Revival or Spanish Colonial, and one (the Gregory Ain Mar Vista Tract) is a mid-century modern area. For detailed articles about each district, refer to: Category:Los Angeles Historic Preservation Overlay Zones.
