This area was basically to the South of the Stockton <br /> Channel. It was the home for the "Skid Row" population in town, <br /> largely comprised of homeless men who abused alcohol. *In the mid <br /> 1960s, a redevelopment plan was adopted by the City of Stockton to <br /> clear about nine square blocks of land and rebuild. <br />
