Glassell Park Architectural Design | NPLD 2026
Architectural design in Glassell Park spans two distinct typologies and three site-condition overlays — California Bungalow stock on the flats, Mid-Century homes on the slopes, the Baseline Hillside Ordinance on Mt Washington-adjacent lots, and the Verdugo Wash flood zone band. Successful architecture here reads all of these from the first sketch.
