LONG BEACH CA - FEBRUARY 7, 2025 - - Abraham and Cecilia Beltran sit in the living room in their one-bedroom apartment in Long Beach on February 7, 2025. They both love Midcentury design and color and have decorated the apartment with lots of colorful accents and personal mementos, including family photos and collectables from their travels. The living room is surrounded in family photographs and keepsakes the couple have collected for years. It's an 800-square foot post-war apartment typical in this Long Beach neighborhood.
