The ABC mural is the work of Brooklyn-based artists The Yok and Sheryo. And there was a little bit of controversy when this mural first arrived.

God it is so depressing that these assholes are defacing everything and getting away with it. The amount of graffiti lately is out of control.
ReplyDeleteI live down the block, and unfortunately, the mural's been left to deteriorate over the last few years. Personally, I think it brings some nice color and energy to that corner – but since no one cares about its upkeep, kids tagging it will most likely only continue. The kids don't care and don't have much respect for what came before them.
ReplyDeleteThe tags aren't even good.
ReplyDeleteNot even any good graffiti in area … all hideous! Also whomever owns that building they do not care for the streets around it .. always covered in litter .. at all times.
ReplyDeleteSomething new needed to be painted. The throw ups are simply a catalyst towards Loisaida seeing something fresh.
