1st street and main street in Downtown LA, Southeast corner of city hall is the directional compass for the city. West of Main uses W. And east uses E. Goes all the way to Beverly grove 1st street ends somewhere around LA Cienega Blvd. You got the Beverly center and connection and Alden begins but N. And S. Are no longer used. Beverly hills uses Wilshire zblvd as it's N S divide.

Another interesting thing is addresses numbering in LA. I think every block west of Main street is 100. 2nd block is 200. By the time it gets to Fairfax its 7000s 8000s that's 70 or 80 blocks from downtown.

South of 1st street, everything is numbered 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Every block between the two streets will be between the lesser number.times 100. So an address of 9510 S. Vermont Ave means it's at 95th street and Vermont Ave.
