[2] The neighborhood's African-American population grew steadily in the post-World War II era.
[2] Hazelton, with its brick streets, neo-Gothic churches, and family-owned businesses, retained a strong ethnic flavor long after many of the city's residential areas became rather homogeneous.
The neighborhood retains a number of well-known landmarks, including Immaculate Conception Church, one of the oldest surviving Roman Catholic parishes in the city,[2][4] and Saint Nicholas Byzantine Catholic Church, a symbol of the area's Eastern European population.
