Eastside, Los Angeles : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eastside Los Angeles
The Eastside of Los Angeles County, California, is a geographic region that includes the neighborhoods of Boyle Heights, El Sereno and Lincoln Heights within the city of Los Angeles and also East Los Angeles, California, an unincorporated area.〔 ==History==
East Los Angeles was founded in 1870 by John Strother Griffin (1816–1898), who was called "the father of East Los Angeles."〔(H.D. Barrows, "Memorial Sketch of Dr. John S. Griffin," ''Annual Publication of the Historical Society of Southern California and Pioneer Register, Los Angeles,'' Volume 4, Number 2, 1898 )〕 He was said to have created the first suburb of the city of Los Angeles in Lincoln Heights after he purchased 2,000 acres of ranch land for $1,000 and in 1870, with his nephew, Hancock Johnson, erected houses on the site. That land was a rancho called La Rosa de Castilla, on the east side of the Los Angeles River, taking in the deserted hills between Los Angeles and Pasadena. In late 1874 the two men offered an additional thirty-five acres, divided into 65x165-foot lots, for $150 each.〔("Street Name," EastLosAngeles.net )〕〔("Founder of Cities," ''Los Angeles Times,'' August 24, 1898, page 1 )〕 They planned the laying out of streets of the present community of East Los Angeles and gifted East Side Park (the present Lincoln Park) to the city of Los Angeles.〔〔("Griffin, John S. (John Strother), 1816–1898," Social Networks and Archival Context Project )〕
