Regarding “A City Divided,” Jan. 29: What an interesting article on Lynwood. What particularly caught my eye was the fact that the Century Freeway cut through the heart of the city and “transformed the community from a prosperous blue-collar city into a poor one. It was a classic example of a public works project that seemed to symbolize progress but brought hardship to a community in its path.”
There are those who for 30 years have wished to divide the city of South Pasadena by a freeway. This article should be required reading for all who vote for or against the 710 Freeway.
