Echo Park Quinceañera mural restored to its former glory

Retouching the mural. Twitter photo via @andresjcruz

Andres Cruz on Twitter sent us the above photo yesterday, showing the progress made on the Quinceañera mural on the former Pescado Mojado building. The mural, painted in 1996, was being sanded off for the new Señor Fish restaurant when the neighborhood protested. Work stopped immediately, and the new restaurant owners hired an artist who had worked on the mural before to begin the retouching immediately.

    Hey there this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with
    HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I
    wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would
    be greatly appreciated!

    Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
    You clearly know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos
    to your weblog when you could be giving us something enlightening
    to read?

    Hi! I know this is sort of off-topic however I needed to
    ask. Does operating a well-established blog like yours require a
    large amount of work? I’m completely new to blogging however I do write in my diary everyday.
    I’d like to start a blog so I can share my personal experience and thoughts online.
    Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for new aspiring blog
    owners. Appreciate it!

    He was entirely right. This post truly made my day. You cann’t imagine just how much time I
    had spent for this information! Thanks!

  15. Carlos Eduardo Veiga Petrobras says:

    Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between superb
    usability and visual appearance. I must say that you’ve done a fantastic job with this.
    In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Chrome.
    Excellent Blog!

    I just could not depart your website prior to suggesting
    that I really loved the standard info an individual

    new posts

  17. Bettamio Vivone e Pace Advogados says:

    Having read this I believed it was really informative.
    I appreciate you spending some time and energy to put this information together.
    I once again find myself personally spending way too much time both reading and leaving comments.
    But so what, it was still worthwhile!

  18. Bettamio Vivone e Pace Advogados says:

    Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and
    say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but
    I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips and hints for first-time blog writers?
    I’d really appreciate it.

  21. Annett says:

    I’ve been surfing on-line more than 3 hours today, yet I by no means discovered any attention-grabbing article like
    yours. It’s pretty price sufficient for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the
    internet will likely be a lot more helpful than ever before.

  22. Heath says:

    Thank you for sharing your info. I truly appreciate your
    efforts and I will be waiting for your further write ups thanks once again.

  23. Kai says:

    Thank you for any other fantastic article. Where else could anyone get
    that type of info in such an ideal means of writing?
    I have a presentation next week, and I’m on the search for such info.

  24. Cristina Boner says:

    I am really enjoying the theme/design of your website.
    Do you ever run into any browser compatibility issues?
    A few of my blog readers have complained about my blog not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome.
    Do you have any suggestions to help fix this problem?

  25. Kléber Leite says:

    Amazing blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring
    writers? I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost
    on everything. Would you propose starting with a free
    platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m totally overwhelmed
    .. Any tips? Cheers!

  26. Grupo Coral says:

    Hey! This post couldn’t be written any better!
    Reading this post reminds me of my old room mate! He always
    kept talking about this. I will forward this post to him.
    Pretty sure he will have a good read. Many thanks for sharing!

  27. Carlos Eduardo Veiga Petrobras says:

    Hi! Quick question that’s totally off topic.
    Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My website looks weird when browsing from my iphone 4.

    I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to resolve this problem.

    If you have any suggestions, please share. Cheers!

  30. Desembargador Mauro Pereira says:

    Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re
    using? I’m looking to start my own blog soon but I’m
    having a difficult time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.

    The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most
    blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
    P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

  31. Michele says:

    great points altogether, you just received a new reader.
    What could you recommend about your put up that you simply made
    a few days ago? Any sure?

  32. Kaylene says:
