释义 |
Kinney Heights is a neighborhood in Los Angeles, California. It is a subdistrict of the West Adams district of South Los Angeles, California. The area was developed around 1900 by developer Abbot Kinney, for whom it is named. It was a suburban tract of large Craftsman style homes at what was then the western edge of Los Angeles. The homes featured amenities like "beveled-glass china cabinets, marble fireplaces and mahogany floors".[1] It was accessible to downtown via streetcar and attracted upper-middle-class families.[2] Many of the hundred-year-old homes are still standing and have been renovated and upgraded. The neighborhood is part of the West Adams Terrace Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ).[3] References1. ^{{cite news|url=https://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/latimes/doc/421992756.html?FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:FT&type=current&date=Apr%2017,%202005&author=Carol%20Mithers&pub=Los%20Angeles%20Times&edition=&startpage=&desc=VANISHING;%20The%20history%20of%20one%20house%20in%20Los%20Angeles%20By%20Carol%20Mithers|title=Vanishing: The history of one house in L.A.|last=Mithers|first=Carol|date=April 17, 2005|work=Los Angeles Times|accessdate=28 July 2013}} {{Los Angeles}}{{South Los Angeles}}{{coord|34.036027|-118.313283|type:adm3rd_globe:earth_region:US-CA|display=title}}{{LosAngeles-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|url=https://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/latimes/doc/293101013.html?FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:FT&type=current&date=Oct%2001,%201995&author=MARILYN%20TOWER%20OLIVER&pub=Los%20Angeles%20Times%20(pre-1997%20Fulltext)&edition=&startpage=&desc=IN%20TOUCH%20WITH%20THE%20PAST;%20Craftsman-style%20homes%20in%20three%20neighborhoods%20recall%20gracious%20days%20of%20yore.%20Today%20they%20rate%20among%20L.A.'s%20best%20buys|title=In Touch with the Past: Craftsman-style homes in three neighborhoods recall gracious days of yore.
