Lucy Siam, 77, a tenant of Lincoln Place since 1974, stands in front of a new art piece titled, ‘The Tree of 180 Keys’ at Lincoln Place. The keys were made from packing materials and hang on a 24-foot-tall ‘Holiday Tree’ at the make-shift Lincoln Place tent city in Venice. The number of keys represents the number of families who were evicted to make way for a condominium development. On Dec. 6, 58 families at Lincoln Place were locked out of their homes — the largest single day eviction in the history of Los Angeles, tenants said. In March, the remaining 86 households, which
have extensions due to disability and advanced age, will be locked out as well.
