Andrew Chavez
Spending holidays and summers at grandmother’s house. Lincoln Heights is a place where people still have deep roots, where parents attended schools still standing, shops and landmarks are still places that current resident stroll by, memories about being touched by social movements and boycotts, as well as changes dictating and shaping the neighborhood to as it stands today.

Listen to Andrew’s mother recollect a changing neighborhood and the time her mother lost her wedding ring.
Listen to Andrew’s father here.

Vera Padilla
Long time Resident, Teacher, Lincoln Heights Neighborhood Council Woman
How do businesses change and for who? Starting with kids early on, one city council woman is hoping to change the perception of how Lincoln Heights can sustain business in the future. Vera explains opportunities for community members to get involved from business planing to getting involved with the neighborhood council, with a little history of how previous businesses in the past were not embraced.

How do we educate ourselves about what businesses will benefit a community?
