About

For more than 50 years, a barricade on Lathrop Street has divided El Sereno and South Pasadena, raising troubling questions about neighborhood access, fairness, and the legacy of segregation. Originally described as a traffic-control measure, the closure became a symbol of the economic and social divisions between the two communities. Despite decades of protests and legal challenges, the barrier remained. The removal of road-closure signage in 2024 marked a step forward, but residents continue to face questions about restoring access and improving connections between neighborhoods.
