Which Way, L.A.?
Graffiti in Los Angeles: Art, Vandalism or Both? Graffiti writers have teachers, codes of conduct and ethical standards. Not all of them are involved with gangs. Considered to be public art and beloved by commuters, LA freeways are decorated with murals by commissioned painters. The California Department of Transportation has spent almost $2 Million dollars in the past two years restoring murals defaced by graffiti.

One Year Later: Rebuilding from the Thomas Fire This week marks one year since the Thomas Fire descended on the city of Ventura. It burned more than 500 homes within city limits. Since then, roughly half of those properties have received the green-light to start construction, but only a handful have actually broken ground. We visit one neighborhood where some of the first homes are getting rebuilt.
