Beverly Glen Boulevard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beverly Glen Boulevard is one of three major routes that connects West Los Angeles to the San Fernando Valley (the other two are the 405 Freeway and Sepulveda Boulevard ).
It starts off at Pico Boulevard in West Los Angeles. It proceeds to intersect with major streets such as Santa Monica Boulevard and Wilshire Boulevard. Century City and Los Angeles Country Club are located near those two intersections, respectively.
Beverly Glen Blvd travels further north, intersecting with Sunset Boulevard near UCLA and entering the gated communities of Bel Air. The hills that the boulevard passes through north of Sunset and south of Mulholland Drive is known as Beverly Glen. Beverly Glen is a wealthy section of Bel Air, filled with large homes and gated communities.
After passing Mulholland, Beverly Glen Blvd swerves west and passes through the exclusive homes in Sherman Oaks. It eventually ends at Ventura Boulevard in the south end of the Valley. Commuters seeking to go further north in the Valley go one block west to Van Nuys Boulevard which spans most of the Valley's length.
Beverly Glen Blvd is east of Sepulveda Blvd and the 405. When traffic on the 405 becomes unbearable, many commuters take Beverly Glen Blvd or Sepulveda Blvd instead, causing considerable congestions on both streets.
