This absolutely surreal picture appeared in a story that KCET just posted about Bunker Hill in L.A. The station has been doing a fascinating series on the laws that have shaped the L.A. landscape. This week they look at how the federal Housing Act of 1949 resulted in the destruction of the Victorian mansions that were once clustered on Bunker Hill. (Courtesy the L.A. Public Library and KCET.)
