Seen in Echo Park: this tree! What is it?

I showed property in Echo Park yesterday and spotted this tree.  What is it? A poinsettia tree? Whatever it is, it's beautiful.  Yes, Echo Park is still a bit edgy but it's coming around.  I wanted to buy the rehabbed property I saw with my buyers -- it was that cool, and staged perfectly -- I'll publish the pic and address once I know whether or not my clients want to make an offer on it.
