This building has recently been completely covered in graffiti and the area around it has also become a blight on the neighborhood.

This building has been vacant for over 5 years and has remained graffiti free until recently. So sad to see this area declining.

Thank you.

This entire building remains covered in graffiti. Some of the plywood covering the windows has been painted over, but the entire building must be painted in order to comply with Oakland,s graffiti ordinances.

It looks like this property may be moving forward as it looks like they have new funding from a bank for completing this building that has sat uncompleted for over 5 years now.

I went by here yesterday and was surprised to see that the building had been cleaned up a bit. It's still got lots of random pain on it, but the owners have made a serious effort to clean this place up.

Unfortunately, it looks like work may have stopped, as I haven't noticed any workers lately and the front has been completely boarded up. But, hopefully they will finish construction before the end of the year.

I am going to close this issue for now and hope that I don't need to re-open it later this week.
