About Lincoln Heights

LA Lincoln Heights is a very diverse and interesting neighborhood. It is located just north of the I-10 and is bordered by the Los Angeles River on the west. The southern portion of the neighborhood is industrial, being home to the Piggyback Yard, which is Union Pacific Railroad's massive L.A. hub. There are plenty of artists in the area, mostly because of the Brewery Art Colony, which rents live/work spaces to artists in the former Pabst Blue Ribbon Brewery. This neighborhood is also home to the San Antonio Winery, which has been around since 1917.
