HISTORIC JEFFERSON PARK

WHAT IS AN HPOZ

A Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ) is a special zoning ordinance designed to protect and preserve the
architectural heritage of select communities in Los Angeles, now and for future generations. In recognition of the cultural and historical significance of our neighborhood, Jefferson Park was designated a historic district in 2011.
