    I found in California College Pl. in Cerritos, Fullerton and Lemon Grove. Also N. College Pl. in Long Beach. Probably missed some but will try to research on the above.

    Just reviving in case someone can come up with a fresh suggestion.

    I do. Think it's meant to be symbolic. Church tower (notice cross) standing tall, college gate and beyond in ruins, traffic signs indicating "no entrance" or "one way". Could be a protest painting against the Catholic Church and freedom of dissent. Doesn't appear to be a specific place -- architecture vaguely Mediterranean, signage clearly U.S.A. -- and look to date 1960s-ish.

    Perhaps has something to do with this:
