Historic
Estrada Courts
Estrada Courts is a low-income housing project in the Boyle Heights area of Los Angeles, California. It is located on E. Olympic Blvd & S. Lorena St.
Why it's on the map
Estrada Courts was constructed in 1942–1943, during the World War II housing shortage in Southern California, which resulted from the war-time boom in war-industry work, followed by the return of servicemen to the region and the Bracero program.
When the Estrada Courts were built it was unique to other housing projects because it “was not fully segregated or bound by racial restrictions”.
