I loved your exploration of the Montecito Heights area
David (3940dxer). The crumbling stairways and dirt roads to nowhere,
a mere 3 miles away from downtown L.A., brought to mind a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Throw in the fact that Aimee Simple McPherson's Church of the Foursquare Gospel stills owns prime real estate in this mostly overlooked area
makes it doubly intriguing! It also looks like a good place to dump some bodies (if you're low on gas that is).
below: One last view.
