Texas Flag background on street shot

dragon0103

Ok, I really like this building, but there are some imperfections in the paint job of the Texas flag and I want to get a good shot of it. I tried to blur the background with this image, but I feel it may be lacking... Help me out with some ideas on a way to keep the flag on the building OOF and still a major part of the photo. Maybe a person? Car?? The lot to the left is empty so a choice of filler is possible. Let me know what you think!

You can always clean up the imperfections in the flag by cloning in Photoshop. But why not let it work to your advantage? The white in the flag is a bit blown out and maybe take another shot with lower exposure would help to bring out some of the other details in the rest of the flag. Also, I can't decide if I like the tree across the top or find it distracting.
