If you are looking for positive and creative ways to eradicate and reduce graffiti, and improve the physical beauty of your neighborhood, please attend this year’s Gathering of Neighbors on May 4th, beginning at 9am and ending at 3pm, at Chief Sealth High School. Representatives from the Dept. of Neighborhoods, Seattle Public Utilities, SPD, school officials, and Delridge/West Seattle community groups, will be there to provide the public with an array of resources and support to create murals, rain gardens, plan cleanup events, as well as, paint out graffiti. There will also be a panel discussion on the pros and cons of electing City Councilmembers by districts.

How about along I-5 through seattle and I-90 exit it looks like crap. Goes up quicker than the paint can dry covering the old. If they want to use cameras why don’t they put some up in areas that need them ? or do they infringe on the the street artist and homeless peoples rights ? It sure has got worse in the last 5yrs. They need to spend some time to catch this people and fine them for all cost they cause or get them out there repainting and cleaning up this town. But then this is Seattle and they probably will just call it art and give them a key to the city.

If they ever catch these destructive vandals, their punishment should be at least a year’s worth of cleaning up the mess they leave in their wake.
“art” my *ss.

I am pretty sure “Monk” is a frequent tag that young taggers and artists are writing referencing urban artist “Jaybo Monk” -a musician and a “street artist” out of Berlin. He doesn’t live in WS. :)

I’ve seen that “MONK” tagged all over West Seattle, even over a freeway sign on 599. Seeing property tagged really burns me up. Keep a lookout for this guy.

Catch the guy who tags “MONK”, and you will take care of 50% of the graffiti problems in West Seattle and White Center.

Little creeps allready tagged the castle playground and it’s not even open yet with a 6 foot fence around it. Wish I was there when they did it.
