Crenshaw in Layers

CRENSHAW IN LAYERS

Tall signs, palm trees, and generations of Los Angeles stories.

This photo-based digital art collage by photographer Harden A. Carter captures the Crenshaw Corridor south of Obama Boulevard, near Coliseum Street—where automobile showrooms, bowling nights, and neighborhood shopping have each left their mark.

The vintage Pontiac sign recalls the boulevard’s dealership heyday. Nearby, the former Holiday Bowl coffee-shop façade preserves a connection to a gathering place that brought Black and Japanese American Los Angeles together beginning in 1958.
