I think Tahoe Park fits the bill, Hollywood Park is a bit more expensive.

The other high ground was Sand Hill, the old city cemetery, but nobody lives there (well, there are people at that address, just not living ones!)

I agree! I keep trying to rep WBURG but it keeps telling me I need to spread the reps around more. Thanks for the great history lessons and great info on the city.

caligirlz: A few, but that's just output. It's the input that is most important, and there is a lot of source material to learn and read, and people to listen to. I feel like I've barely scratched the surface sometimes.
