On a trip last fall I was stunned to look up at this perilous, ever-evolving hillside and see a riot of color. Every tropical hue from the (hypothetical) Benjamin Moore Caribe. I asked our driver.

http://antarcticiana.blogspot.com/2014/04/not-just-another-night-at-wd50.html

http://antarcticiana.blogspot.com/2014/09/on-streets-with-camilo-j-vergara.html

On the east side of the Avenue, stretching for two full city blocks, is a wall of blue-painted plywood fencing, marking an enormous construction site. It is as if a huge tree has been felled in the forest, so that along the north side of 132. Eerily, like Knipl, who Katchor created years before the two met, Vergara's daily routine is to go out into America's cities with a camera and take ...
