It was first designated and paved as an arterial road in 1927. The street has been the focus of several significant ethnic communities over the years. Soto Street begins as Miles Avenue in Huntington Park at Florence Avenue. It becomes Soto after crossing Slauson Avenue, shortly before entering Vernon, in which city it crosses over the Los Angeles River. Soto Street then runs north through the neighborhoods of Boyle Heights and Brooklyn Heights. In Lincoln Heights, Soto Street merges with Mission Road to form Huntington Drive.
