Chicken Boy Statue
I include Chicken Boy because Los Angeles's vernacular monuments are as historically significant as its official ones. The roadside giant is a California form.
A 22-foot fiberglass figure with a chicken head, originally a fast food restaurant mascot from the 1960s, now on a rooftop on Figueroa Street in Highland Park.
