Boyle Heights is a district on the east side of Los Angeles, California. Originally owned by the early L.A. Boyle-Workman family, it was subdivided in 1875 and named after Andrew Boyle. Always one of the most heterogenous neighborhoods in the city, it was a center of Jewish life in the early 20th century, and is now a strongly Latino district. This evolution is evidenced, among many other ways, by the name of the main drag: once Brooklyn Avenue, it was rechristened Cesar Chavez Boulevard. Boyle Heights is crisscrossed by several major freeways including the San Bernadino freeway and the Santa Ana freeway.
