When 500 Days of Summer came out, it become an instant movie favorite of mine. It was a bit of a love letter to a couple of things I hold near and dear which is Los Angeles, The Smiths and well, falling in love.
There is a scene in the movie in which the two protagonists spend a brief moment together on a park bench on Bunker Hill next to the Grand Central Market and Angel's Flight (which is now closed sadly). The scene made the park so famous that for a brief time, there was an actual bench dedicated to the movie and I believe it was called the "500 Days of Summer Bench." Correct me if I'm wrong.
I went to the location with the mission to take a photo of GCM while sitting on the bench but I took this photo of the buildings being silhouetted because the bench was cordoned off. I later learned that the park itself was being closed down and the bench is now no longer there.
