Description	Aerial view. The center of this picture is now the intersection of Second Street and Juanita Avenue.

Also in the center fill is the Sacatela Creek (also called Bimini Slough) and Bimini Hot Springs. Sacatela Creek is shown on the 1902 USGS map as a perennial stream that began in the Franklin Hills and joined Ballona Creek in Koreatown/Mid-City, approximately between Wilton, Westchester, and Country Club Drive. A seasonal stream flowing from today's Beverly Boulevard and Madison Avenue. In 1930, a stormdrain was laid in the stream's path and the creek was filled.
