ABOUT TOLUCA LAKE, STUDIO CITY, VALLEY VILLAGE
Toluca Lake is a district in the San Fernando Valley region of the City of Los Angeles, California, 12 miles (19 km) north of downtown Los Angeles. Toluca Lake started out as farmland but today is home to affluent residents. Past and present residents included Bob Hope,[1] W.C. Fields, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Gene Autry, Doris Day, Ozzie and Harriet Nelson, Andy Griffith, Goldie Hawn, Roy E. Disney, James Garner, Ron Howard, Amelia Earhart,Linda Blair and Denzel Washington.
Toluca Lake is situated in the southeastern San Fernando Valley between the city of Burbank, the Los Angeles district of North Hollywood, and the unincorporated county area of Universal City.
The area's historic boundaries are Cahuenga Boulevard, Camarillo Street, Clybourn Avenue, and the Los Angeles River,[2][3] and it is located between two major film and television production studios, Universal Studios to the south and Warner Bros. to the east. The Santa Monica Mountains surround the area.
A 6-acre (24,000 m2) body of water called Toluca Lake is located near the district's southeastern boundaries; water originally came from springs, but currently wells at the lake’s edges maintain the water level.[2][4] The bottom of the lake is surfaced with four inches (102 mm) of asphalt concrete to halt water seepage.[2] Owned by the surrounding homeowners, the lake has been maintained by the the Toluca Lake Property Owners Association, a non-profit corporation established in 1934.[2] Being completely surrounded by private property, the lake is virtually never seen except by property owners and their visitors.
Studio City is a four-square-mile district in the San Fernando Valley region of the City of Los Angeles, California, United States. It is bounded roughly by Ethel Avenue to the west, Highway 101 to the north and east, and Mulholland Drive and the Santa Monica Mountains to the south.
Studio City earned its name in the 1920s when Mack Sennett moved his studios from a neighborhood known as Edendale (near Echo Park) to a property near Colfax Avenue and Ventura Boulevard. His soundstages, Mack Sennett Studios, were later renamed Mascot Pictures Studios, Republic Pictures Studios, MTM Enterprises Studios and today are known as the CBS Radford Studios.[1]
Studio City is located in the south east part of the San Fernando Valley. It is connected to Los Angeles' vast network of freeways by Highway 101. Access to other parts of the city is also provided by Laurel Canyon Boulevard, Coldwater Canyon Avenue, and Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevards. Its main thoroughfare is Ventura Boulevard, where the bulk of its commercial activity resides.
The area, like many parts of L.A., has seen a great deal of tear-down building, with large condominiums replacing single family homes, and a surge in retail. A local golf and tennis facility is in danger of being displaced by a senior residential complex. Nearby, the historic Sportsmen's Lodge is also threatened with eventual redevelopment; however, negotiations among the Los Angeles Conservancy, Studio City Residents Association, and the facility's owner have led to the suggestion of public review before any planned alterations to this site.[1] Traffic and parking problems have recently worsened, and the construction of parking structures has not made a visible improvement.
Valley Village is a district located in the San Fernando Valley region of the City of Los Angeles, California, north of Studio City, west and south of North Hollywood, and east of Sherman Oaks. Approximately 22,000 residents live within the boundaries of Valley Village, which consists mostly of single family homes and small shops and businesses. Valley Village has a significant Jewish population. The Valley Village Post Office encompasses the 91607 zip code.
The community of Valley Village was first formed in 1939. It was originally considered part of North Hollywood, although it was more upscale than most of North Hollywood. In the 1990s, Valley Village was officially recognized as a separate community by the Los Angeles City Council.
Valley Village is bordered by the Ventura (101) Freeway to the South, the Hollywood (170) Freeway to the East, the Tujunga Wash to the West, and Burbank Boulevard to the North.[1]
