About WEST ADAMS HERITAGE ASSOCIATION

Location:

2263 S. Harvard Boulevard, LOS ANGELES, CA 90018, US

Mission Statement

The West Adams Heritage Association (WAHA) is devoted to preservation of the historic West Adams section of Los Angeles. West Adams is located just south and west of Downtown and contains the city's largest concentration of Victorian and Craftsman homes, five of the city's Historic Preservation Overlay Zones, and a concentration of Los Angeles Historic Cultural Monuments. We support preservation of the West Adams community's architectural heritage and beautification activities, and seek to educate Los Angeles' citizens and others about cultural heritage and restoration techniques.

Description

WAHA works to promote commercial development of the major streets, to clean up trash, to paint out graffiti, to encourage cooperation between ethnic groups, and to win the same level of city services that are routine in more affluent parts of town. But WAHA has a special perspective: it believes that part of what makes our neighborhood unique is the classic architecture of its homes, a treasure for the city and for the residents of West Adams.
