The railroad underpasses on College and Walnut, the one on College is just south of 14th street is full of graffiti again, not a good message to send to visitors and a downers for residents.
There is an abandoned building on the SE corner that needs to be torn down. What a mess. Why is this structure allowed to exist.
AN EMPLOYEE FROM ST. CHARLES REPORTED AN UNKNOWN SUBJECT SPRAY-PAINTED GRAFFITI ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING.
EMPLOYEE FROM BLACK'S MERCANTILE REPORTED AN UNKNOWN MALE SUBJECT USED A BLACK MARKER TO WRITE ON THE FRONT DOOR AND WINDOWS OF THE BUSINESS.
There is a large amount of black graffiti on the northeast corner of Scholars Rock apts at 17th and Walnut. They should at least be notified. Very unsightly and distracting.
Our fence was spray painted last night. "Support your local dealer"
White spray paint on wall in east parking lot by office building
The train trestle underpass just past Bender Lumber is an incredible eyesore of graffiti. It is an extreme example. I don't know if the city graffiti busters (I was referred to you by Mayor Kruzan) have used black paint to "address" this site, but if so it actually looks much worse. The older train track underpasses all over the perimeter of the city need to be checked and the graffiti addressed. Former Mayor Tomilea Allison's policy was to paint over all the graffiti at a site like an underpass with gray paint to completely remove any trace of tagging and defacement. She did this as soon as it was reported. This discouraged the vandals knowing that no one would see their dog-like marking of that territory.
This defacement (or is it some kind of horrid mural) I believe is on the back of the building housing Boomerang Hair downtown on the B-Line. It is in the somewhat protected section that is behind what used to be Irwin Union Bank and Le Petit Cafe, the back of Boomerang Hair etc. I am not sure if this site is on private property but I indicated that it was.
