A Mid-City Fiesta
Seventy degrees in the winter, eighty degrees in the summer. Palm trees that line the asphalt boulevards rise above the skyline.
A young Angeleno finds his way in what they call the City of Angels.
A city of dreams.
From Downtown to the Westside, from the Valley to South Central, the city’s culture is defined but there was always something particularly special about Mid-City.
Mid-City is the heart of the city. It lies at the intersection of culture. The neighborhood’s main arteries, Pico & La Brea, can take you from Santa Monica to Downtown, or Beverly Hills to Baldwin Hills.
Mid-City, Los Angeles, California is the underground.
A nomadic melting pot.
Remnants of old Hollywood meet with a birthing of authentic Los Angeles culture, landmarks: Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles, Oki-Dog, El Cholo, Sky’s Gourmet Tacos, and the El Rey Theatre.
An inclusive breeding ground of youthful creativity. A migration point for the city’s youth. A place they migrate to find their own identity.
They love Los Angeles, but they love the Mid-City fiesta even more.
