Photos: Cafe Hon flamingo flap
A city inspector said Cafe Hon must get a "minor privilege permit" for its pink flamingo, a fixture in Hampden since it was put up about seven years ago, or take it down; the cafe's owner, Denise Whiting, calls it public art. The flamingo was removed Tuesday, Oct. 20.
