There's a neighborhood off of Wilshire Blvd. near Hancock Park called Brookside, and according to a book I have about Wilshire Blvd., it's called that because an actual brook or creek runs through there behind some of the homes, and it's considered one of LA's "well-kept secrets" by the people who live in the area and like the creek.
That's it! Sopas, I have been scratching my head thinking about where I've read about a creek or a wash west of Crenshaw, south of Wilshire, it seems to me it was-- I read it in the Wilshire Blvd book. Ok--someone in Los-Ang-liss has got to sneak into those back yards and take a picture...
