Imperial Courts

Imperial Courts is a public housing project located in Watts, Los Angeles, California.

It is located at 11541 Croesus Avenue on Imperial Highway, between Grape Street and Mona Boulevard, near the 105 Freeway.

The project is predominantly inhabited by persons of African-American and Mexican descent, who in 1991 constituted 88 percent of the population.

Parts of the motion picture Training Day were filmed in Imperial Courts to give the movie a true-to-life project setting.
