according to wikipedia.org:
Some say that shoes hanging from the wires advertise a local crack house where crack cocaine is used and sold[1] (in which case the shoes are sometimes referred to as "Crack Tennies").[2] It can also relate to a place where Heroin is sold to symbolize the fact that once you take Heroin you can never 'leave': a reference to the addictive nature of the drug. Others claim that the shoes so thrown commemorate a gang-related murder, or the death of a gang member, or as a way of marking gang turf.[3] A newsletter from the mayor of Los Angeles, California cites fears of many Los Angeles residents that "these shoes indicate sites at which drugs are sold or worse yet, gang turf,"
