Encanto
Encanto is bounded on the north by SR-94/Martin Luther King, Jr. Freeway and Mallard Street; on the south by Imperial Avenue; on the east by the city of Lemon Grove and Broadway; and on the west by Federal Boulevard, 60th Street and Merlin Avenue. In 1899, Abraham Klauber platted and subdivided the land around his country house into ten-acre lots. His daughter, Ella is credited with naming the subdivision Encanto, Spanish for “enchantment” or “charm.” The area contains a series of natural canyons and rolling hills.
