Sidewalk Something

Human male in black w/ tie & gloves (no hat, however) spreading & celebrating at the six points* in humid 90-ish°F temperature, Independence Day 2014.

*Bonus local color:
How could you leave out the worst intersection the whole city: the infamous Sunset–Hollywood–Virgil–Hillhurst [And Sunset Drive, dipstick. — M.B.] megillah in Los Feliz/Silverlake. No signage, lots of pedestrians, and absolutely no one knows when it’s their time to make a left hand turn.

Bonus points for being the longest fucking traffic light in the whole city. You literally have time to stop at the light, leave your car, buy a ticket at the Vista, and get back behind the wheel before there's a chance of the light turning.
Almost not kidding; most of the six streets have a left turn light. I've passed several eternities there on every damn corner futilely punching the "cross" button. (Note impatient skater in the top photo.)
