Thai Town gets dozens of new trees

On Saturday, Thai Consul General Damrong Kraikruan (pictured at right) joined more than 100 community leaders in Thai Town to plant dozens of new trees along Hollywood Boulevard. This neighborhood of Hollywood is part of a bustling community that includes Thai businesses and non-profit organizations.

The planting, which was part of Mayor Villaraigosa's Million Trees L.A. initiative, will enhance additional beautification projects that the Community Redevelopment Agency and the Thai Community Development Corporation already have underway.
