The federally subsidised project on Croesus Avenue at Imperial Highway was finished in May 1944 and remains one of the largest west of the Mississippi. By 1991 residents of African American and Mexican descent made up 88 percent of the people living there, which is roughly the shift the whole southern corridor went through in those decades.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
