There is graffiti on the utility boxes along Winslow Rd from Walnut to Highland
Hi again, you know its me ;-) The graffiti is back on the overpass on Rogers just north of the Rogers and 11th St. intersection. Places that were cleaned up have graffiti painted over them. There is the word "ORDEAL" written on the west wall and various other fresh taggings that really mean nothing to me except they are ugly. This area of town is in an ascension period and this overpass will probably need to be watched carefully. I will help. You don't need to contact me when you have had time to touch it up. You do an excellent job with this site.
Someone has tagged the back stairway at the Walnut Street garage. The entrance off the alley near 7th Street.
Two white males were observed using chalk to write ideological/hate graffiti on the sidewalk in from of Merrill Hall on the IU campus at around noon on Saturday July 13, 2013. The messages included obscene language and were directed at feminists, modernists, and homosexuals. Each message ended withe the URL TRADYOUTH.ORG. I was seated nearby as the vandalism took place and took two photographs as they were writing, but I can't upload the photos using this mobile site. After they left my husband and I used water to obliterate the obscene portions of the messages. Is someone can send me an email address I will forward rhe photos.
The bicycle/pedestrian tunnel under SR46 needs graffiti removal (again). Also, the concrete ramp for accessing this tunnel and apartment complex (east of tunnel) is too steep for bicycles and wheel chairs. Need to grind down curb on this new concrete ramp.
The graffiti on the west wall of the College Ave railroad trestle is OUT OF CONTROL. It must be painted over or removed ASAP. What happened to the policy of removing or painting over graffiti as soon as it is seen and reported? Our former mayor Tomi Allison instituted this policy and it works because the criminals know their defacement will be removed or painted over before it has it's intended gang communication or political statement effect. College Ave is a street which gives a first impression to visitors, IU parents and students and countless others. Railroad trestle walls (like the one on East 10th Street just past Union St. that I complained multiple times about) are prime targets for graffiti criminals (public and private defacement is against the law) and must be dealt with by the citizens and police being alert and reporting incidents of it.
Not really graffiti but I was not sure what category to select. I am curious about the laws regarding posting advertisements on signs and other surfaces around the city. Is it allowed? Is the Poster required to come back and remove the sign after the event date has passed?
Our neighborhood stone sign for Trailview on Moravec Way and the B-Line has been spray painted with what appears to be B.T.K. in black
The south-facing reflector sign in the traffic circle at 6th and Oak has been painted with the "Vain" tag that has appeared all over town. It has been there for a while now (a few weeks, perhaps). Thanks!
Green spray painted graffiti marked on my wall between 518 and 512 W Howe St. This appeared 4 to 6 weeks ago.
