Graffiti Busters

Just as I mentioned in my earlier post Life And Death, the walls of East Village buildings change quickly, and without a moment's notice!

I saw this new mural being painted this evening, as I rode my Citibike across St. Mark's Place, between First Avenue and Avenue A:

New mural being painted.

The painting of new murals always draw a crowd of enthusiastic spectators — you can even see another East Village photographer atop the ladder on the left, documenting the event!

I don't remember what the wall looked like before, but an old-timer behind me said "It's much better now. No graffiti."

Eradicating graffiti, one wall at a time… in the East Village Today!
