It's been Hawthorne since before you were born. The old school building at 11th and Washington was the Hawthorne School, and the projects to the north were called Hawthorne Square. The name got attached to the whole surrounding area.

They’ve been there for a month or two.
Side note: the tooth brush section at target across the street has an awesome view of the massive construction site.
