Aerial view of the 7th and Vermont, Wilshire area. Sacatela Creek is in the foreground. 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 season stream flowing from today's Silver Lake Reservoir also joined Sacatela Creek near the intersection of today's Beverly Boulevard and Madison Avenue. In 1930, a stormdrain was laid in the stream's path and the creek was filled.
