A magnetic nanocache

Los Angeles' Painted Ladies

 

Once upon a time, there was a Locationless Cache home-based in this neighborhood.  The locationless caches became Waypoints and were moved out of Geocaching.  A real, physical nanocache is now located in this interesting neighborhood. 

Carroll Avenue was the first suburb of Los Angeles and is located on the crest of Angelino Heights overlooking downtown Los Angeles.  A real estate boom in 1887 saw the construction of numerous majestic Victorian homes in the new neighborhood.  The entire 1300 Block of Carroll Avenue is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Come by, find the cache, and then visit a color part of Los Angeles' past.

Very nice houses here but saw nobody here. Are the houses for ghosts?!?
Thanks for the cache and greetings from Finland.

I got the cache in this lovely area while a homeowner seemed intent on drowning the grass between the sidewalk and street. I wanted to start a conversation about the houses but didn't like his watering method as water ran down the grass and into the gutter.
