I Didn't Mean To Make This A What The Hell Is Happening At The LA Times Weekend - But - When Did Lincoln Height's Avenues Become Part Of Downtown?
With the 'ID the neighborhoods project' going on at the LAT - how can a man be killed in Downtown in one sentence - and then also killed in Lincoln Heights in the next sentence? And yes, that area is NEAR Downtown - but it is - as the story says - in Lincoln Heights.

I'd like to know when Echo Park and Silver Lake became "The Eastside". I was born and raised in LA and to me the eastside was Boyle Heights, Belvedere and City Terrace (I know the last two are in LA County, but they're still east of Downtown). Now I hear all these hipsters calling the neighborhoods northwest of Downtown "The Eastside". There's even a blog about Echo Park called "The Eastsider". What gives?
And "The Eastsider" is a superb blog. It's just not about the Eastside.
