Wow!!!! This review of Cuscatlan has me starving! So excited to visit it. Thank you for the suggestion! And I laughed so hard at the bump theories, I couldn’t catch my breath. Excellent theories! 🤣🤣🤣I never noticed it either. I’ll make sure to ask my neighbour as she has lived in Linda Vista since 1933 right by there. If anyone would know, she would. She is constantly talking about the neighbourhood memories. Her husband helped build many of the military housing in the 1940s on our block near Montgomery Middle and Linda Vista Elementary. They didn’t have a car back then so they walked to the store. She remembers when the shopping Center was built and when Eleanor Roosevelt came. Her stories (and her 66 year old daughter’s stories) always have me captivated. Growing up as an African American family, they saw it all. She’s been trying to find old photos of the neighbourhood for me. I’m hoping to get them framed once she finds them.
