So glad his home was turned into a condo

As A proud owner of one of the beautiful Maltman bungalows in Silver Lake, I wanted to thank you for featuring them in your article [“Little by Little,” June 5, about an L.A. ordinance that allows for multiple small homes to be built on certain lots].

I’m 29 years old and grew up in the Silver Lake/Echo Park/Los Feliz area.

Being able to finally afford a little house I can be proud of in a community I truly love is a dream come true. It certainly has been the best option for someone who has wanted nothing more than to have their own piece of heaven in a city they love.

I hope your article inspires more developers to invest in this type of housing so that others may have a chance to own affordable, attractive property.
