Editor:
As a resident of the beach tract in Ocean Park, I frequently drive up and down Ocean Park Boulevard. I have been enjoying watching the new mural as it evolves. I recently returned from being out of the country for a month and was dumbfounded by the placement of a new tree. It completely obscures the main, intricately-detailed focal point of the painting. Don't the city departments talk to each other, and now that it is done, has anyone noticed?
