Description

This is an abandoned building. The rear wall of this building has previously served inadvertently as a commons area for homeless until new homes were built in 2011 and cleared the area, now exposing 100 feet of graffiti (yes, 100 feet). Vandals defaced the former murals that children painted who once occupied the building during its operation. We have seen new graffiti added since the area was cleared out earlier this year.

I've attempted to contact the owner of the abandoned property but was unsuccessful.
