Mosiac Man's work painted over on St. Mark's Place
On the northeast corner at Third Avenue. Did this happen recently? For some reason I never noticed before.

At least it's still sort of beautiful this way -- as if Mosaic Man had arranged giant slabs of rock on the surface of the moon. Someone should make a rubbing of the mosaic...
Is that ConEd's handiwork? The city?
Why?
Should we call 311 to complain and/or lobby for an EV exemption to whatever rule requires silver paint on the base of streetlights for Mosaic Man?
I year or so ago, a bunch of his mosaics, mostly around the park and down 7th St., IIRC, were painted over with metallic paint. He rescued some of them but, I think, a few were goners.
I'm not sure, anon — ConEd and the city are likely equally guilty. The paint does look pretty fresh...
I notice the tiles of mosaic are falling off the pole by the pee phone i think too..
