Feel the heat, Los Angeles
Sunset Boulevard is known for bringing the party. And is responsible for cultivating some of the most important moments in pop culture and music from the early ’60s to today. We love our sun-drenched neighborhood.
There's a lot to see and do around here, from the modernist architecture to exploring the lakes:
- Grab an acai bowl from Juice Crafters or head up Silver Lake Boulevard to LAMILL Coffee for cold brew. If you're a night owl looking for some tunes, head to Los Globos for late-night beats, walking distance from our Sunset location.
- Need a little headspace? Check out Laurel and Hardy, a pocket-sized patch of grass that's five minutes away from the studio. Echo Park and the reservoirs are only a stone's throw away too.
- If two-wheels are better than four, the Los Angeles River bicycle path is nearby, with eight glorious miles through the Glendale Narrows to stretch your legs.
