I never realized how cool the artwork is in playland. It's looks like the murals in the Mission (SF neighborhood), which is totally worth a walking tour when you visit.

I've said to west coast folks Playland is similar to the Santa Cruz broadwalk here. I totally stand corrected. Playland is way cooler! (even with all the riff-raff)
