Banksy's Caution in Culver City?



Banksy's 'Caution Fun!' piece has still not been found.

We have heard a credible suggestion from MELROSEandFAIRFAX reader Jake whose keen eye spotted some green street signs in the pic released from Banksy's website, similar to the ones in Culver City. Jake also recognized the location of Banksy's elephant from the picture, so this might be it!

Hit us up as soon as people find something!

Happy Hunting!

  1. Call me crazy, but this looks more like the valley to me. Like perhaps on Magnolia or Burbank Boulevards.

  4. ^^When arguably the biggest street artist in the world comes to LA I would hope a "street art blog" would be the first to highlight every single one of his moves. Keep it up MELROSEandFAIRFAX!

  9. Also, I don't think this is in CC. I think it's in a Hispanic neighborhood and CC is definitely not. Look at the ad, it's in Spanish. Also, given the context of the piece, it would lead me to think it's in a Hispanic neighborhood.

  10. I really don't think that's Burbank. I live here, and the sidewalks don't look nice enough for the East - West streets. Could be Panorama City or Sun Valley though... I love the hunt!

  13. I don't see any green street signs in that photo. The one thing that I can see that might be a street sign looks blue to me, which would still keep Long Beach a possibility.

  15. I live in Culver City, and I don't know of any streets like this. It looks more like a street in Echo Park to me.

    I'm excited to find out where it actually is! :)
