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?"

Avenue A, 9:10 a.m., May 30

You can say this about ConEd: They don't skimp on the barricades

This morning in Tompkins Square Park

Thanks to Ted Roden for passing along this shot taken early this morning in Tompkins Square Park...apparently someone decided to overturn every trashcan in the Park...



He has two more photos here. No theories. Random drunks? Bored kids?
