The street that exposed GTA V's biggest leak was hiding in El Burro Heights all along

An early 'Robbery locations' map from the December 2023 source code leaks reveals that El Burro Heights' main boulevard was originally named after La Cienega Boulevard in real-world Ladera Heights — with 'El Burro' (the donkey) chosen as a crude Spanish counterpart to 'La Cienega' (the marsh). This map became crucial evidence in understanding how Rockstar renamed and reshuffled Los Santos neighborhoods during development.
