I guess this is some type of public scribbling? I don’t understand the need to vandalize occupied businesses, buildings and public surfaces in general? I might be missing something. DSC_8149-001 DSC_8150-001

DSC_8122-001 Spent some time walking around the LES gazing at the architectural elements that stand out. I thought the admission price for the Tenement Museum was outside of my budget so this is as close as I got.
