The freeways so dominate the landscape of our neighborhood. We are grateful to the neighbors who had the forethought to take photos and save brochures of what the area looked like before and during construction of the freeways. In 1922, there were still a few remnants of the forest cut down for subdivision of the Asa Hunter Estate. (See tract map below from 1912.)
