The Villa Carlotta, located on 5959 Franklin Ave. is a historic building and for years has been a home for artists and activists. The residents are now being unjustly evicted and we are determined to preserve this beautiful building and ensure that the rental rights of these tenants are protected. The Villa Carlotta and its community represent a sector of Los Angeles that is fading fast due to the implementation of the Ellis Act. We insist that the beautifully intact units be preserved and allow residents a right of return. We are fighting to protect this way of life and support the artistic community of Los Angeles.
