Title supplied by cataloger. Not a Cornfield, a 32-acre project created by artist Lauren Bon, transformed an industrial brownfield into a cornfield for one agricultural cycle. The City of Los Angeles dedicated this field, also known as Southern Pacific's Cornfield Yard, as Cultural Monument #82 for its role as the Southern Pacific's River Station railroad yard. As of 2006, this location became known as Los Angeles State Historic Park. Xin Ling Stein stands in front of the "Not a Cornfield" field, which is located just north of Chinatown and within half a mile from El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument. Photograph dated September 25, 2005.
