I noticed a large pile of tires behind a closed business on Mahoning Avenue near Milton Avenue. I believe this site is in the Garden District. Were the tires just dumped there or were they left from the previous business operation?
On what side of the street were they?
There use to be a car scrap yard in that area, but that was several years ago.
The tire pile is on the south side of the street about a block west of the Hostess Bakery Outlet. The property may have been a used car lot in recent times.
This is the view from Mahoning Avenue.
That building looks a lot like the Tedd Glass Auto Sales, but that used car lot was on the east side of the Hostess Bakery at the corner of Mahoning and Halls Heights. If this is the place, its still listed in the phone book. You didn't show the whole building so as to show the signage.
I realize that we all want a totally pristine city absent anything that offends the eyes and sensabilities, and the owner should have erected a wooden fence around that part of the lot so as to hide the tires from street view.
