Here's a map showing Cahuenga Park (and the nearby Hollywood Country Club -- have we discussed that before?). The "proposed blvd.

I looked everywhere for more information on 'Cahuenga Park' and found nothing
so good job on your findings,

I thought I'd remind you noirishers that diminutive Viola Dana was married to former Yale football player,
Maurice Lefty Flynn.
He also appeared in silent films with Viola and their size difference is rather mind boggling.
IMDB
...Maurice 'Lefty' Flnn - Viola Dana - Adophe Menjou
From
Open All Night. (1924)
There's a scene where Viola races Lefty on a tricycle.
LOL. I've never seen the film so I have no idea how the race ended but I'd put my money on Lefty.
