Larchmont, Los Angeles, California
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Larchmont (alternately Larchmont Village) is the commercial heart of the Hancock Park district of Los Angeles, California. Although the neighborhood lies wholly within Windsor Square, and serves as Windsor Square's "main street," it is commonly thought of as a distinct and separate district, a dividing line between the mansions to its west and the family homes to its east (an area known as Windsor Square). Larchmont Village is centered on Larchmont Boulevard between Beverly Boulevard and 3rd Street.
The commercial strip along Larchmont Boulevard resembles a well-preserved downtown in a small Northeastern or Midwestern town. The trendy street is home to Dawson's Bookshop, an important Los Angeles bookstore and publishing house, as well as Pinkberry and numerous upscale restaurants and shops.
