About
Murals depicting early 20th-century African-American life along a rail spur that ran on the elevation behind the painted walls. The "people of color" lived in the Red City and Little Africa neighborhoods and worked for the local lumber mill or surrounding orange groves. The settlement was named Red City because the mill owner painted all the homes red, the cheapest paint color.
