Good morning.

(If you don’t already get California Today by email, here’s the sign-up.)

Today, The Times’s real estate editor, Vivian Toy, tells us about how her team is expanding its coverage of the Golden State:

The Times this week turns its eye toward real estate in California and introduces two new weekly columns: “What You Get in California” and “Living In.”

Every Monday, the “What You Get” column will feature three properties from around the state at a specific price point. This week, our reporter searched for $550,000 homes and settled on a studio apartment in the 1898 Castle Green in Pasadena, a modernist retreat at Sea Ranch and a bungalow with a guesthouse in the Bay Area.

Every Tuesday, the “Living In” column will focus on a different neighborhood in California and show readers what it would be like to live there — offering insight on housing options, schools, popular local hangouts and a bit of local lore. This week, our reporter visited the fast-changing neighborhood of Highland Park in Los Angeles, describing how it became “the new Silver Lake.”

As a bonus this week, we also have an “On Location” column, which chronicles the way that a Los Angeles architect turned a 1955 Palm Springs house in need of renovation into an inviting weekend home for his family.
