Street art boards come down (but are still awesome)

Found on Anaba. I don’t know if you’ve seen those cool paintings bolted to street signs across Richmond — and in our neighborhood — but I thought they were really cool. They’ve been taken down now, but don’t worry you can still catch them on Flickr.

  1. When you say, “taken down,” what do you mean exactly? I saw one up this morning (though it is still morning, and so my brain isn’t functioning well enough to remember exactly where…) Blogspot is down so I can’t read ananba’s post about it.

  2. I think I mean, like, taken away by the city. The Anaba post talked about how the city was taking them down but allowing the artists to come and claim them — not throw them in the trash.

    Honestly this is a case of me just passing on “what I heard on the street, man.”

    If you see some still up, post a comment letting us know where they are.

  3. At least now I know a little bit more about what they were. I thought they were rather spiffy, actually.
