Curating the City: L.A. Conservancy Gives Us a Comprehensive View of Wilshire

The Great Los Angeles Walk 2010 is timed to the long-awaited update of the L.A. Conservancy's extensive Curating the City site all about Wilshire.

As we mention in the Great Los Angeles Walk press release, the award-winning site offers a virtual tour of Wilshire with descriptions of eight neighborhoods and 160 structures, accompanied by more than a thousand images. The recent update added nearly sixty buildings and hundreds of photos.

Everyone on the Great Los Angeles Walk 2010 will receive a copy of the Conservancy booklet from 2005 that describes dozens of landmarks along the boulevard.

That way, not only will you be walking down Wilshire, but you also have the ability to take a self-guided tour and really get to know the street up close and personal.
