"Visions to Victory: A People's History of the SR-15 Freeway" is the story of a 40 year community struggle to prevent the neighborhood of City Heights from being divided in half by the SR-15 freeway.
Film poster created by Pueblo.
This 12-minute documentary details the efforts that lead to the new Mid-City Centerline Stations, the only freeway cover park in California (Teralta Park), the SR-15 Commuter Bikeway, Park De La Cruz, Ward Canyon Park, the City Heights Transit Plaza, the Boulevard Transit Plaza, two bike/pedestrian bridges, and more.
This multi-generational campaign has made City Heights a more resilient community and has created a culture of advocacy and leadership known throughout California.
We're very excited to announce that this film we produced in partnership with Media Arts Center is now available for free streaming. We've also uploaded 60 images from the 1970s to today that detail this struggle and subsequent victory. See the images and film at SR15visions.org.
Thank you!
