Civic Pride

Eliminating half the lampposts on Warren Street necessitated pouring new sections of sidewalk where lampposts had been removed. These new sections have proved to be magnets for vandals, graffiti artists, and others who just couldn't resist sticking a hand or a foot into wet cement. A walk from Front Street to Fourth Street and back again this morning revealed that few of the new sections have escaped some level of defacement--whether accidental or intentional--but these examples are the most deliberate and extreme. I've provided the addresses of nearby buildings so that, if inspired to do so, readers can go and see for themselves.
