Public Staircases: Defensive Landscaping

Photo: Diane Edwardson, May 29, 2010. This public staircase of the Red Car Neighborhood is so well hidden, it doesn't have an official name, but lies between Roselin and Lake View Ave. (Click on photo to enlarge.)

Bougainvillea and cactus are scenic and defensive landscaping on public staircases.

We're celebrating the public staircases of the neighborhood in conjunction with The Big Parade II, the 2-day, 100+ public staircase hike coming June 12 & 13, 2010: www.bigparadela.com.
