For historic homes, homebuyers can find everything from Craftsman bungalows to Spanish style homes from the turn of the century, designed by renowned architects.

The body of water known as Silver Lake was once called “Ivanhoe,” after the 1819 Sir Walter Scott novel. Many streets in Silver Lake are named for book characters, including Rowena and Herkimer. The reservoir is divided into upper Ivanhoe and lower Silver Lake. The reservoir provides water to communities in South Los Angeles but is in the process of being decommissioned.
The existing lake will be converted to recreational use surrounded by a pedestrian path, dog park and nursery school. During the 1930s, Walt Disney built his first large studio in Silver Lake. Architect Richard Neutra, designer of many homes in the area, built his own home on Silver Lake Boulevard. The house still exists, and is visited by architecture fans and students. Neutra's offices were nearby on Glendale Boulevard.
