Wander down historic Angelino Heights

Angelino Heights's Carroll Avenue is quite a contrast from the other streets in the area with many of the Queen Anne and Eastlake style Victorian homes classified as Los Angeles cultural historical monuments. Unsurprisingly many of the houses have been used in movies and TV shows: 1329 Carroll Avenue is The Innes House, built in 1887 for Councilman Daniel Innes but is most famous for being the house from the TV series Charmed where the Halliwell sisters live (in the show is set in San Francisco). 1338 Carroll Avenue was used in the filming of J Edgar Hoover starring Leonardo DiCaprio. In fact, if you look on Google Street view you can see the movie cameras filming outside this house! 1345 Carroll Avenue (with the very rare Morten Fig tree in the garden) was used in Michael Jackson's Thriller video. Towards the end of the video, his girlfriend runs to a house to escape the zombies and this is the house she runs to. 1355 Carrol Avenue was used as the brothel that Don Draper grew up in in the TV show Madmen. Remember these are private homes - don't go in the gardens, knock on doors or look through windows - admire from the sidewalk or risk being arrested! #travel#couplestrip#thingstodo#citydaytours #losangeles #historical #filminglocation
