Wooden crates are piled up in the courtyard in front of the decaying stucco of the long white adobe known as the second Casa Santa Cruz (or the Santa Cruz Adobe) located at 641-643 N. Broadway. Mrs. Isabel Santa Cruz purchased this adobe from José Mascarel in the early 1860s and it was demolished in 1957. The part of the city called "Sonora Town" was an old adobe village north of the Plaza and Church of Our Lady, Queen of the Angels. It was Los Angeles' first Mexican quarters, or barrio. The area was named for the numerous miners and families who came from Sonora, Mexico, and may have still been around in the 1930s. Now it is Los Angeles' Chinatown District.
