NELA Neighborhood Maps

Insights from community members during the placemaking process revealed a rich layer of hidden gems in each neighborhood, ranging from informal street vending hot spots to locally built bulletin boards. A series of neighborhood maps provide a creative opportunity to share information with neighbors and visitors alike.

These Riverfront District maps can also delineate recreational areas, unique businesses, and neighborhood points of interests. These maps help promote local tourism, support local businesses, and create a stronger sense of place. A participatory process of creating these maps enable local stakeholders an opportunity to take greater pride in their community assets. The maps created by TRUST South LA using a combination of technology, social media, and organized bicycle rides are examples to explore.
