One side of an electrical box on University Avenue at Interstate 805. This particular art closely resembles other examples I once photographed in National City.
Check out a whole bunch of super cool photos! All this awesome street art was encountered during a short walk in City Heights.
I began on University Avenue near I-805, walking east along the sidewalk on the south side. Then I crossed at 35th Street and headed back west down the sidewalk on University Avenue’s north side.
Enjoy!
Another side of the same box. Weird humanoid figures seem composed of fluid ink.Urban artwork that seems both ancient and futuristic. Strange geometric patterns in these figures appear symbolic.The fourth side of the box.Cool mural in City Heights on the side of the Teros Gallery. Journey Within Through the Sea of Soul, by Celeste Byers and Aaron Glasson, depicts the gallery owner riding a Chihuahua ship on a distant planet upstream into herself!Walking east down University Avenue I spied more street art on electrical boxes.A young girl, and a young boy with binoculars.A man and small child together ride a motorcycle.A face looks upward.Another young face, and a sitting girl reaching for what appears to be a pencil.This trash can at a bus stop was brightly decorated by a street artist.More fun street art, near the corner of University Avenue and 35th Street.A funny dog appears to be assailed by a crazy bird.More humorous faces and birds.I’ve crossed the street and am heading back west. I noticed this colorful tower to the south features references to both City Heights and Cherokee Point, a neighborhood south of University Avenue.Before crossing the street I spied this fun street mural near another bus stop.Now that I’m walking next to it, I can really enjoy this sun and pink flamingo. Both are wearing sunglasses. By artist Gilly Bee, created for #TheAvenueMuralProject.I found another super cool mural on the side of The Kings Barbershop.The front of The Kings Barbershop was painted by DyseOne and Hasler.A very colorful mural on University Avenue in City Heights! I believe this bold spray paint art is fairly new.It’s the Tooth Fairy on the wall of North Park Dental! By artist Sand One, a Latina street artist from East Los Angeles.

Hey Richard, My name is Carlos and I’m one of the Co-Founders of Love City Heights and #theavenuemuralproject. I just happened to have come across your article about “Super cool street art in City Heights” and was pleasantly surprised to see one of our murals there. We actually have 7 murals within a couple blocks from the flamingo one at Tire Express. I would love to get together and show you the rest in person and share with you our goal and what our project is trying to achieve. Feel free to message me any time. Hope to hear from you soon.
Here is a link to our promotional video which I hope you find informational.
