The abandoned house on the south side of West 8th Street near the intersection of 8th and Williams has been tagged with gang graffiti. The tag is on the west side of the house.
This is the former site of House Bar on west side of 12th and Walnut. Very recent graffiti

There is a very large recent graffiti tag on the west wall of the railroad underpass that needs to be painted over asap. I understand there is a special crew that handles graffiti. There is also graffiti on the East wall and on the east and west walls of the underpass directly east on Walnut St.
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.
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.
Graffiti on stone retaining wall close to intersection Grant and 12th. Writing is visible from Grant Street. Not sure if City is responsible for the retaining wall or the property owner.
