The History of Mosaic

The rebranded name commemorates the area’s rich history and salutes the future of the Downtown region. During the Works Progress Administration in 1938, the largest mosaic in the country was commissioned at the Long Beach Auditorium. When the auditorium was demolished in 1979 to build the Convention Center and Terrace Theater, a community-led effort saved the artwork, which was re-installed at Harvey Milk Park, currently situated within the development.

The “Recreation in Long Beach” mosaic remains a significant cultural icon in Long Beach and the new name pays respects to the renowned artwork while celebrating a modern vision for the district that weaves the fabric of the city together.
