Primera Flats in Boyle Heights Los Angeles

Eastside Primera Flats [ESPF, 1st Flats] is a predominately Hispanic street gang located in the Boyle Heights section of Los Angeles just east of the Los Angeles River. Primera Flats is among the oldest street gangs in Los Angeles dating back to the Russian community that occupied the flats during the very early 1900s.

During the 1920s the flats area was known as one of the worst slums in the United States. The City of Los Angeles decided to raise the entire flats section from the present day 101 Freeway (north) to 6th Street (south) and erected one of the largest public housing projects in Los Angeles. From 1940 to 1999 the projects of Aliso Village, Pico Aliso and Pico Gardens occupied the former Russian Flats area and shortly thereafter became the headquarters for several street gangs, including the Primera Flats.

After the City demolished the housing projects, they constructed a new housing projects, Pueblo Del Sol. Although it is administered by the City of Los Angeles, it is actually operated by private company, McCormack Baron Salazar. Pueblo del Sol covers the same area where the original housing projects were located going south to Inez Street. The new development had a small impact on the Primera Flats street gang, pushing most of its presence east of the 101 Freeway in the area of Mariachi Plaza, Primera Flats members continue to have a presense in the housing development.

    To all the 8st homies and boyle heights varrios Boyle Heights is a 13 location aka mv free zone. Gage and the rest of the maravillas needs to be put back in their place east of Rowan. Put the varrio ish to the side and like we do it on the inside make it a SOUTH SIDE thang. sUrS vs them…you’ll be bless. Take care of your varrio and boyle heights by the rest enemies.

    Look at all these pieces of crap posting above. All ingnorant and poor. The roaches and rats of society. They claim to own their streets and towns. Idiots don’t even own their own homes. Love watching the news and seeing these idiots live. All morons, regardless of whichever gang they’re from. Hilarious watching them write and talk. Or the lack there of. Uneducated trash.
