12 August 2013: Mi Corazón

At the Lunt St. Viaduct.
I'll need to go back and take another look at what's being done here; 

it seems to be a series of unconnected paintings, but maybe there is some plan 
to combine them into one unified mural. At any rate, i like this part.

11 August 2013: Block Party

The annual Farwell Ave. block party. 
A bouncy castle is always a good idea for a block party, 
but the 1914 Stutz was an impressive addition.

10 August 2013: El Mariachi, the Prequel

This little mariachi suit in a shop window on Clark St. was so cute
that i had to go back and take a picture of it, but somehow the picture ended up being kind of scary.
The way the stores across the street are reflected in the window makes him look transparent and ghostly.
Then there's that strange, featureless face and the little hands lost inside
the too-long sleeves.

9 August 2013: Bonus Bicycle Picture

Seen on Farwell Pier

9 August 2013: I Can See Right Through You

Back at Sheridan & Farwell. This is the ground-floor doorway where the mannequin used to sit (see post from 17 November 2012). Now the building is so thoroughly gutted that you can see straight through to the backyard.

8 August 2013: My Obsession

I can't seem to stop myself from taking pictures of the building at the corner of Sheridan & Farwell.
Today, i was on the opposite side of the street and stopped to watch the ghostly way 

the plastic sheeting in the windows was floating on the breeze.
