I don't know why I thought this was on Santa Monica. It's on Hollwood. Sorry.

And it's OZER, not Revok as we originally had it titled. Sorry again.

"EL CHAVO!" has an excellent post up at Metroblogging Los Angeles about Estrada Courts in Boyle Heights.

This picture is my favorite, covering all the bases. He's got almost three dozen photos and great descriptions. Which reminds me: If you see pictures of interesting street art around your neighborhood, email us at lurker (at) laweekly.com You can email us the locations, or even better, links to your Flickr or blog page or even send us photos directly. Just don't make 'em huge.
