Put simply, Room 8 was – is – one of the Park Echo’s most famous residents, and, between rock stars, art stars, writers and intellectuals, political luminaries, we have had quite our share.There are photographs of the self-Possessed Tabby on Echo Park Historical Society calendars and mounted on the wall of local restaurants, there’s the mural on the side of Elysian Heights Elementary, there are testimonials – Dozens of them – carved into the cement on Baxter St . and Echo Park Ave in front of the school where children wrote their names and a few personal words about the feline superstar.
