You've arrived at Edward Vincent Jr Park, which is also the location of the Centinela Springs.
This park is named after Edward Vincent, a local politician who was Inglewood's first Black mayor. Throughout his career, he served in the state Assembly, the state Senate, the local city council, and the local school board.
This park also hosts The Willie Agee Playhouse. Known as Mr. Inglewood, Willie Agee was considered Inglewood's most vocal ambassador. He passed away last year.
In addition to recognizing influential figures in the recent past and present, this site is one of ancient significance. A monument explains that this is the site of a natural spring dating back to the Pleistocene era. Not much water seems to flow now, since recent water management practices prevent a lot of rainwater from recharging ancient aquifers.
This is a good spot to have a snack and bathroom break. After this, we're riding for about 6 miles before arriving at 109th Street in Westmont - the site of Dijon Kizzee's death. This should take you about 30 minutes. Please take note that the next restroom along this stop - a porta potty - is at South LA Wetlands Park, about 12 miles away (about an hour without stopping).
