Street Art Shanty Town

This back alley spot used to be a hot bed for graffiti and street art.

But then some homeless people moved in, placed a pad lock on the gate, and erected domiciles out of wood and boxes. It started with one, and then there were two--and now it looks like there are four separate dwellings back here, making it a full fledged shanty town.

At the time, when this picture was taken, the people shown were talking, and two other people not pictured were hollering back and forth to each other from inside the structures.
