Pear Blossom Tree and Graffiti in the LA Arts District

A pink pear blossom tree borders a building painted with colorful splash of graffiti art. The Arts District is a neighborhood on the eastern edge of Downtown Los Angeles, California, United States. The gritty area has given new life to old industrial buildings whose history often dates to the early 20th century. While much of the early creative art was done behind closed doors, the street scene has slowly been activated in the early years of the 21st century as more and more factories are creatively reused with some new construction interspersed.
