    The google street view photo may be misleading, there’s a bus shelter beside the bench. It’s not great as it doesn’t protect from street noise, but at least provides some shade.

      I’m less worried about the sun (a very real concern in LA, but I don’t leave the house without a sun jacket) than I am about the 12 lanes of traffic surrounding it without any kind of barrier. I always see shattered glass leftover from previous wrecks at big intersections like this, it’s not something I really want to be near as a pedestrian if one happens while I’m there.
