El Mirador was built in 1929 by architect S. Charles Lee, who is widely recognized for his deco movie theatres, like the Alex in Glendale. While I was there I met Dave, a three-year resident looking good in his tank top, who gave me some details on the property. You could make the small sacrifice of A/C and a dishwasher for decorated ceiling beams and tons of built-ins, right? I don't know... moving in to El Mirador pretty much makes you a starlet by next weekend.
Drive by El Mirador: 1302 +1310 (side entrance) Sweetzer Ave, on the NE corner of Fountain Ave.
