In this latest video offering from Lael Wageneck, we get an inside look at this area, which is located between Highway 101 and the train tracks, from State to Milpas streets.

Nice vid.

Is "Know Your Neighborhood" going to be a new video feature at the Indy??

Also, why is the Funk Zone southern boundary here defined by the railroad tracks instead of Cabrillo Boulevard ??
