When Central Avenue Was L.A.'s Jazz Capital
Central Avenue was once at the center of African American cultural life in Los Angeles, and a focal point of entertainment and jazz music in particular. It's the home to Historic Places such as '30s Coca-Cola bottling plant, the Lincoln Theatre and the Dunbar Hotel. The present-day Central Ave Jazz Festival takes place in July.
