The companion to Flicker Place, where the enclave's celebrity pedigree meets its most ambitious new architecture.
The Way and the Place
Flicker Way and Flicker Place together form the enclave's eastern flank, the two stems of a namesake split between a through-way and a quiet close. The Northern Flicker — a large, spotted woodpecker with a flash of red under the wings in flight — is a fitting patron for a pair of streets that have alternately drummed up attention and retreated from it. Where Flicker Place carries the documented celebrity pedigree of past decades, Flicker Way has become the street of the present tense: the address where the enclave's newest spec architecture climbs the hillside, each build reaching a little higher than the one before it.
The Foster–Tiegs House
9219 Flicker Way was the former home of actress Jodie Foster and model Cheryl Tiegs—a reminder that the Bird Streets' appeal is generational, drawing entertainment-industry figures across decades. The address anchors Flicker Way's celebrity chapter, the counterpart to the new spec architecture rising beside it.
