On Wednesday, workers finished
putting in the Popsicle fence at the Cooper Square Hotel... a tempting canvas for street artists... and sure enough, in what will be the first of many, I imagine... someone tagged the fence last night... and thanks to EV Grieve reader Ryan for snapping this shot early this morning of the Cooper Square Hotel Anti-Graffiti Team going into action...

I took this shot a little later...

...and just up the way at the new Cooper Union academic building...

Anyway, why did the Coop Hotel clean the tag? I thought they wanted to
"fit in with the edgy local art scene?"
