Hancock Village Los Angeles

Hancock Village is the area of Los Angeles flanking La Brea Boulevard between Wilshire and Santa Monica Boulevards. It extends three blocks east and one block west of La Brea. It is bordered on the south and west by Miracle Mile and Longwood Highlands, on the north and west by West Hollywood, on the north and east by Hollywood and on the east and south by Hancock Park. It is centered on the intersections of La Brea and Third; La Brea and Beverly; and La Brea and Melrose. It lies between the actual park called Hancock Park (at the tar pits and museum) and Hancock Park, the residential area. It is often considered part of Hancock Park as the street layout was designed by developer-philanthropist G. Allan Hancock, who subdivided the property in the 1920s. Hancock, born and raised in a home at what is now the La Brea tar pits, inherited 440 acres, which his father, Major Henry Hancock had acquired from the Rancho La Brea property owned by the family of Jose Jorge Rocha.

Hancock Village can be described as the Upper East Side meets Tribeca. It is where old money and new money mix, where affluent gay couples live next door to Hassidic Jews, where the movie industry comes to live, shop and eat, where galleries support new and nationally renown contemporary artists, next to LACMA which houses some of the finest classics and modern art. It is urban and dense, but full of old Sycamores and wide sidewalks. The grandest and most elegant residential historic buildings lie on Sycamore Avenue within very close walking distance to the one and two story hip shops and cafes on La Brea.
