New Cooper Square Hotel fence tagged

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?"
