Fun With Maps or Every House Is In Toluca Lake Toluca Lake is such a wonderful, unique area. It has so much to offer that once one moves here, they find it very difficult to ever move out. In the past, "Toluca Lake proper" was described as the part of North Hollywood (City of Los Angeles) bounded on the north by Camarillo St., Pass Ave. to the east, Cahuenga Blvd. to the west and the L.A. River to the south. As time marched on, additional streets found themselves enjoying the cache of being located in Toluca Lake as did a number of Burbank streets (the Burbank side of Toluca Lake). All that is pretty clear to most Tolucans and those who love this special area. Recently, though, I've noticed that some agents seem to be unable to read a map and are advertising listings as being in Toluc...
Light or Dark Wood: What is Your Cup of Tea? According to a number of interior trends writers and design professionals, when it comes to wood in the home, colors such as ebony and espresso are making way for caramel, blonde and honey. For example, instead of dark tones on a floor contrasting strongly with much lighter counter-tops, the softer hues of the wood are complimentary. Most people desire harmony when it comes to the design and aesthetics of their home whether they are consciously aware of it or not. Many designers point out that this trend of using lighter woods/wood products with transparent finishes allows the natural wood features to quietly enhance other objects, styles or themes within a residence. Darker colors can cause substantial wood areas or objects to be mor...

Home Sweet Toluca Lake There is a special neighborhood located just north of Hollywood through the Cahuenga Pass and nestled next to the L.A. River between Burbank and Studio City. This community is Toluca Lake. It is not a city but a neighborhood in North Hollywood that straddles the border between the Cities of Los Angeles and Burbank. Toluca Lake "proper" is in L.A.; the streets from the east side of Clybourn Ave. to Pass Ave. (loosely) constitute the Burbank side. As you surely are now confused, I will clarify further. The L.A. side of Toluca Lake is in the community of North Hollywood which is in the City of Los Angeles. Burbank is its own city. Are you getting it now? Regardless of what side of Clybourn, the City boundary, residents live on, most know this: once you check-in to T...
New Businesses Find A Home In Toluca Lake One of the great things about living in Toluca Lake, aside from the nearby Hollywood Studios, proximity to the sea and mountains, and wonderful celebrity neighbors, is that we actually have a "downtown". This part of the Village is filled with restaurants and unique small businesses. As we move into 2014, there seems to be a flurry of new business activity. On Riverside Drive, from Cahuenga through Toluca Lake Village over to the Burbank side of Toluca Lake, these new businesses are springing up, one by one. Not only is this excellent for the area economy because money is being made and spent right here, but much-needed services are being provided to residents and commuters alike. In Los Angeles, the ability to walk to shops, entertainment and...
