Growth and development spilling over from Frogtown
Situated in the valley created by the Los Angeles River and the Arroyo Seco, Cypress Park is a trendy neighborhood with a buzzy commercial stretch. "The investment and growth in neighboring Frogtown has been incredible over the last 10 to 20 years, and that has spilled over into this area," says Dario Svidler, Partners CRE's executive vice president, who has almost $1 billion in career sales. "Along the river has historically been light industrial, but that has changed as parks and artists have moved in. This area has actually been rezoned to prevent more auto shops, which should encourage even more businesses to move in." And businesses have been moving in — the Portuguese hotspot Barra Santos opened in 2023 and was added to the Michelin Guide just over a year later. The restaurant's rapid success is indicative of broader revitalization efforts in Cypress Park that are attracting both businesses and homebuyers.

Michelin-recommended dining on Cypress Avenue
Though it’s largely residential, there is an increasingly thriving commercial stretch along Cypress Avenue. There are some auto businesses, but Svidler says new ones aren’t allowed in the neighborhood, which is meant to spur a different type of development. Morning Light is an art supply store, Atlas Homewares sells home goods and Permanent Records Roadhouse is a record shop with a bar and micro-brewed beers. Super A Foods is a family-owned supermarket with hot foods and groceries for stocking up. Loquat Coffee is a popular local haunt with exposed brick and beams and a sunny yellow interior. Their mascarpone latte is made with espresso, muscovado milk and mascarpone cheese foam — some say it tastes like a cup of liquid tiramisu. A classic hole-in-the-wall taco stand, Taqueria Frontera opened in 2024 and quickly became an area hot spot for authentic Mexican. Barra Santos is a Portuguese restaurant with a recommendation from the Michelin Guide. It's a small, no-reservations venue where the best seats are at the 25-foot red oak bar, which has a view into the kitchen.

Easy access to two of LA's biggest and best parks
Cypress Park is about a mile from Elysian Park, home of Dodger Stadium, and under 5 miles from Griffith Park, one of the most visited parks in California, home to the world-famous observatory and Hollywood sign. Right outside the neighborhood's border is Rio de Los Angeles State Park, a park built on the site of an abandoned freight yard facility that was in use until 1985. Surrounded by residential streets and industrial sites, the park has restored river wetlands and native plants and wildlife. Cypress Park is a classic community park with a playground and a recreation center. Kids are known to gather in the summer for sports and fitness programs like martial arts, gymnastics, baseball and flag football. The park sometimes floods during the rainy season, making it a prime location for wildflowers in the spring. River Garden Park, part of the Los Angeles River Center & Gardens, is at the southern tip of the neighborhood. The gardens are beautiful, and the center is an excellent location for community gatherings, educational conferences and special events. There are bike trails nearby and bicycle service stations and racks.
