Parking Day is a now international phenomenon. Artists and activists around the world took over metered parking spaces to stage events and activities Friday.

Politicians took notice this year with local council members rolling out legislation to establish test park(lets), including ones in Highland Park and El Sereno.

Echo Park/Silver Lake got in the act too, with events at the old Circuit City, Local restaurant and the former Coffee Table, among others.

Photographer Paul Redmond stoppped by and snapped the accompanying gallery.
