Anything larger than one block in length has to go through the City's "Community Naming Process." So, technically, those signs only define the commercial block, not the boundaries listed at the website posted by AVN.

My 'hood's "Franklin Square", bordered by Franklin, Los Feliz, Normandy and Vermont. I don't know if/when we're getting a sign, but this is where the <a href="http://www.laist.com/archives/2007/04/09/hey_los_felizists_ready_for_restricted_parking.php" rel="nofollow"> permit parking</a> was going to be (thankfully denied due to the outcry.)

Glad to see the story got picked up. I just checked out that franklinvillage.net website linked above. On it it says ""Franklin Village" Neighborhood signs going up on 3/29/07 [time to be announced]". So the newly posted name is still new to me. Frankly, I was tired of telling people I lived at the foot of the Hollywood Hills! Wonder if "FraVi" would be a good nickname or not! ;) This is the Bobby who submitted in the pictures.

And Birds, Upright Citizen Brigade Theater, and the Scientology Celebrity Center are all <i>on</i> Franklin Ave so they definitely do connect to it.
