Setting up for Park(ing) Day on Winston.

DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES — Park(ing) Day LA is starting to get underway, as evidenced by this prep work on Winston. Green astroturf has been laid on the half-block site, with lines simulating diagonal parking spaces. In all, a dozen sites should see temporary green spaces around Downtown.

We're going to try and hit all the sites over the course of the day, checking out how different groups make use of their small public spaces. We've set up a special widget on the home page, and you can see all stories via our Park(ing) Day page.
