About City Terrace
City Terrace is a hilly unincorporated community in the Eastside, just east of Boyle Heights. City Terrace Park, the library branch and the area's vivid murals — including the CSULA Wall — give it free, culturally rich public space.
With views toward downtown and Cal State LA at its edge, it's a characterful neighborhood deeply rooted in Mexican American Eastside culture.
