On July 30th, Councilmember Robert Garcia and the Redevelopment Agency unveiled new signs designating the Linden Avenue Historic District in a ceremony at the corner of Linden Avenue and 14th Street.

The new signs were a part of improvement projects designated for the neighborhood, which is located along Linden Avenue from Anaheim Street to 14th Street. The new street signs were funded by the Long Beach Redevelopment Agency, with the support of Councilmember Garcia’s Office and neighborhood residents. Other improvements to the area included new landscaping planters and trashcans funded by the City’s Neighborhood Partners Program.

“These improvements really enhance the look and feel of the street, and I’m especially proud of the new signs, which will draw attention to this great historic community,” Garcia said. “With the invaluable partnership of the Redevelopment Agency, we are working hard to beautify and enhance the entire First District with many improvements, from new parks and community gardens to entirely new streetscapes. This is just one part of that process.”
