With its easy mix of trendy restaurants, modern art galleries and offbeat shops, it was a perfect backdrop for the hundreds of people of all ages, races and professions who filled the streets to witness history in the making.

Along with the throngs, Latina Lista was there filming the night. Latina Lista special correspondent, Rebecca Aguilar, spoke with people about why they were there, what the election of Barack Obama meant to them and the future of the country.

But as the old saying goes — pictures speak louder than words. Latina Lista contributor, photographer James Khattak, shared some memorable photos of the unforgettable night — none of which should need a caption.
