The inside scoop is that a group of folks (I believe to be Oakland residents if I recall correctly) lobbied the city to prevent the construction of that parking lot you see. Instead they coordinated artists to create work to make an art park, as it stands today, or rather is being unveiled? Is there still a fence there? 

Also, now there are restaurants, bars, and beer gardens where this seems to depict retail.
