Eagle Rock is a small neighborhood nestled in northeastern Los Angeles. Eagle Rock got its name from a giant boulder that sits on the northern edge of the city, and an indentation on the rock casts a bird-shaped shadow at certain times of the day. This LA neighborhood is bordered on the north and west by Glendale, Pasadena on the east and Highland Park on the south. Such a prime location makes Eagle Rock a popular destination, while still being able to keep a neighborhood feel to the area. Eagle Rock is also home to Occidental College, a private co-educational liberal arts college.
You may recognize the name Eagle Rock from a song that was sung by Daddy Cool, an Australian rock band. “Eagle Rock” was released on their ‘Daddy Who? Daddy Cool’ album in 1971, and it went on to be the Australian single of the year and stayed as #1 on the national charts for a record-breaking 10 weeks. However, this classic Australian song has nothing to do with the city in Los Angeles. The guitarist and vocalist for the band wrote this song based on a dance referred to as the ‘eagle rock,’ which was a popular 1920s dance. The song has since stayed alive through various cameos, including being covered by the Australian children’s group The Wiggles, who performed it on their 2003 tour.
Eagle Rock has also made a name for itself in the film industry because of its quaint look and close proximity to Hollywood. The city has been a set location for “Top Gun,” “Hunt for Red October,” “Reservoir Dogs” and “500 Days of Summer.” Television shows have been shot here as well, such as “The O.C.,” the 1990s “Beverly Hills, 90210” and “Glee.” Such a great filming location has its perks, and it could potentially be the next location for your Los Angeles office space. Finding a Glendale office space is perfect if you want to explore using Eagle Rock as a filming location. It is easy to set up your office in a Glendale office space and then travel between locations to get all of your work done. This Los Angeles office space is bit removed from deep Los Angeles, which means easier filming locations and less traffic.
A Glendale office space may be the secret to your next successful movie. If Hollywood is still the best place for you to work out of you should search for a Hollywood office space. This prime location for your Hollywood office space is still close enough to make Eagle Rock your main filming location. Working with clients is necessary, so a Hollywood office space may be best for you if your client base is in this area of the city.
