| Info | Built by Italian immigrant construction worker Simon Rodia in his spare time over a period of 33 years, Nuestro Pueblo, commonly called the Watts Towers, in the Watts district of Los Angeles, California, are a collection of 17 structures, two of which reach a height of over 99 feet. The steel, concrete and glass folk-art structures were one of the few items that were undamaged during the 1965 Watts riots. They were started in 1921 and Rodia completed them in 1954.
