it aint their building they can do what they want with it
Ownership is KEY. Many posters in here STILL don't get this point.

Really tho. America doesn't give a fukk about culture or art...unless there's money to be made from it.
That's why endless arts programs are being cut left and right in schools across the country.
No hip hop entrepreneur could have bought it?
While everyone was there sobbing, and writing on oaktag and taping it to the wall...

I straight up tagged up on the wall ...

i support graf and all that, would ahve been dope to get a pic in front of the building butwhen dude said there was no permit for the lift to be used. did you all have a permit to bomb the building.
Yes
U had to get a permit to do work there
It was a process
All them nikkas didn't just sneak there at night with lifts to bomb the building
True...It sad and I hate to see all that hard work and beauty destroyed, but this is America, Jack....Ownership is KEY. Many posters in here STILL don't get this point.
ok well that's different then. so the people who owned the building are just c*nts?
they are c*nts because why the fukk paint over it and then demolish it? seems like a big fukk you to all the artists IMO it would have cost money to get it painted, which was completely unnecessaryWell that's the knee jerk reaction
I lived in queens the majority of my life
The best view of the building is from the train in my avy
It's a staple of queens
shyt is business, not personal
I don't know what they offered the owner but I'm sure it was a lot
I, like most people here would've preferred if they demolished the building with the art still on it and let us know ahead of time
Would'nt have felt like such a blow
Of course I would've liked them to keep it up
And I appreciate them letting us do it in the first place
