In the early part the of the previous century, the Los Angeles Red Car Line was extended to Glendale. The “Glendale Line” made a path from downtown Los Angeles to Glendale through “Edendale,” now known as Silver Lake, Echo Park, and Elysian Heights. To create the line they had to blast through the hills, creating what was then known as the Edendale Cut. The Edendale Cut was the portion located between the Key Stone Station at Max Sennett’s studio to the India Street Station. All that remains of the Glendale/Edendale Line is the unused right of way.
