Los Angeles Architecture Tours: Carroll Avenue: Victorian-Era Architecture in Angelino Heights

Angelino Heights was considered to be the first suburb of Los Angeles when it was established in 1887, and is located just northwest of downtown LA. Carroll Avenue and the immediate vicinity within Angelino Heights holds the largest concentration of Victorian-era architecture in Los Angeles, and contains more than a dozen Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monuments. Below is a sample of the architecture in the Angelino Heights Historic Preservation Overlay Zone, the first district in Los Angeles to receive official landmark status. 

 

Phillips House, 1335 Carroll Avenue, 1887. Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #51

 

 Irrey House, 1325 Carroll Avenue. Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #109

 

               

Innes House, 1329 Carroll Avenue, 1887. Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #73

You may recognize this house from Charmed.  

 

 

Foy House, 1337 Carroll Avenue, 1872. Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #8

The Foy House predates the other houses on Carroll Avenue because it was originally built on Figueroa Street in Downtown Los Angeles in 1872, and then moved to Witmer Street near Wilshire Boulevard in 1919 before arriving on Carroll Avenue in 1992. 

 

 

 Haskins House, 1344 Carroll Avenue, 1888. Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Momument #79

 

Carroll Avenue and the Angelino Heights Historic Preservation Overlay Zone are seen on the LA Highlights Tour.
