Hancock Park
An elegant community once the prime area of rich homes before Bel Air was developed and Beverly Hills was just starting to become a city features large states with rolling lawns, large pools and guest houses. Some of most beautiful architecture can be seen here and it is a treat just to ride east on Sixth Street and see these splendid homes. The Mayor's Mansion, "The Getty House", newly restored, is here along with the homes of moneyed businessmen, doctors, lawyers, agents, and a few movie stars. This area is probably one of the few areas that is flat and offers a traditional neighborhood feel.
