    Significance Statement
    "Excellent concentration of early ornamental streetlights in the area. Intermittently located on the north side of Slauson Avenue and more regularly dispersed on the south side of Slauson, these streetlights likely date to the 1920s. The streetlights appear to be model Permestand 7914, Standard Plan B-619. The streetlights appear to meet local criteria only and may not meet significance thresholds for National Register or California Register eligibility."
