Well, it's not historical archaeology exactly, but there is no better place for an Arts and Crafts architecture pilgrimage, focusing on the work of Greene and Greene in Pasadena. The area is accessible by public transport, though I would take a taxi and use buses for local travel.

Hi Everybody
           I will be visiting LA (Carmello) in late October and l was
wondering about places a historical archaeologist might be interested in in
the area - museums, sites etc, and accessible by public transport. I have
never been to LA and the web seems to favour beaches, shops and Hollywood,
so l thought l would tap into the Histarch pool of knowledge.
                                           cheers
