Biddy Mason is one of the most important people in the history of Los Angeles. An ex-slave who became one of the largest landowners in the city during the middle of the 19th century, her contributions to LA and the world go virtually ignored. This needs to be rectified and her life should be celebrated.

It’s an amazing tribute to an amazing American and important early Los Angeles resident. Downtown LA might b located elsewhere if not for her owning land there. Midwife to hundreds of children, philanthropist helping built churches and the very first school for African American children in LA! It’s accessible from Broadway across from Grand Central Market and directly behind one of the best Italian restaurants n LA - Macherroni Grill. Visit the park and have a...

This place is a nice walk through a bit of LA history, but it wouldn't be my first choice in hang out spots. The last time we were there was for a Race/LA event and the place had a strong "dead animal" aroma lingering around. Not pleasant. Good thing we.were only there for short bursts. I think this place could be a bit more interesting to some, but for me, once I've seen it,...
