Pleasant sight

Dear Editor:In regards to Diana Borzi claiming "Bumblebee" is defacing private property (Letters to the Editor, 3/17/11), for nine years I have passed by a demolished vacant lot with one remaining wall. The place defines blight. It faces a senior citizens condominium complex. I don't see how the residents can stand to look at such a view day after day. Once I saw a senior citizen pulling up weeds from the property. Bumblebee has changed a depressing sight to a pleasant one of a child enjoying life. Has Ms. Borzi asked the owner of the lot what he thinks of Bumblebee? Perhaps he appreciates him as much as I do. -- El Bee, Downey
