It was a pleasure attending the induction ceremony at the site of the future Madison Avenue park in the community. And while I would have been happy to just hide behind the camera, when the people ask you for some poems that you’ve got up your sleeve, you don’t simply say no.
It was anything for the kids and their families as we visualized and drafted plans with neighbors for the future site of our very own plot of green on North Madison Avenue between Lexington Avenue and Santa Monica boulevard.
The event was truly one of my proudest days with Los Angeles, which is a sanctuary city for immigrant communities, and I can hardly wait to share more from the new site.
