To Live and Die in LA: Graffiti Towers
Manage episode 431552932 series 2610304
Right next to Crypto.com Arena (RIP Staples Center), stands two abandoned and unfinished high rise apartment buildings that have essentially become an art installation, covered almost entirely in graffiti. The tags are a who's who of the LA graffiti scene, including pieces by some of the most well-known artists in the city. But why were these buildings abandoned, how did the artists even get up there and what is the mayor going to do about it?
