Semi Tropic Spiritualists' Tract: Joys Of Hillside Living

Photo: Diane Edwardson, November 20, 2012, 10:13 AM.  And developers wonder why neighbors in Hillside neighborhoods get nit-picky about haul routes and construction vehicles blocking Hillside streets - especially when there's only one means of access for the entire hill.  (Click on photo to enlarge.)
 
Last week, DWP informed neighbors that they would be digging up the street at Rosebud Ave & Allesandro St (above) to lay water lines for the controversial 16-lot subdivision in the Semi Tropic Spiritualists' Tract
 
As I turned left onto Allesandro from Rosebud, a LAPD cruiser stopped in the middle of Allesandro.  The officers seemed equally amazed by the City crew blocking the only means of access for the entire hillside above.  When I returned 10 minutes later, the crew had repositioned the vehicles allowing access to and from the hill and continued working.
