Craftsman bungalow enthusiasts adore this walkable district centered around the Norton Simon Museum's sculpture garden. Renters prize proximity to the Rose Bowl's flea market but face strict noise ordinances during annual Tournament of Roses preparations. Most pre-1930s units retain original built-ins but lack central air systems.
