Kelly, would it be OK for people to stick gum all over Brenda's B&B? Or spray paint a church? If so then the gum wall is fine. Now it is different if the owner of that building started it and encourages it. Still dirty, but it is colorful.

Ah. Ok. So you're saying you didn't realize this glorious gooey gum sticking activity is now (and has been for 14 years), not only legal, but also encouraged by the production group housed here, who incidentally owns the theater, before you called it wrong? Yep, the wall is even mentioned in their ads.

So there you have it. By your own admission, it's now suddenly ok.

Let's not take this personal. Everything is art nowadays I guess.

Probably did not start that way, but like Matt said art is art. I don't care one way or the other, just wouldn't want that in my yard.

That's basically what every street in NYC looks like.

A handful of images from Pike Place just added to Scenes from a Public Market. We would need a team of at least 4 photographers and a whole week or more to cover that market thoroughly. These shots just barely scratch the surface.

I'll probably gradually add some photos that aren't in the Scenes gallery.

Here's the original Starbucks. It's located at Pike Place. Always a line. Always good people watching. There are at least a dozen more within 1/4 mile.

And an OOC photo bomb! :lol:

It's a great gallery. Well done!
My favorite shot is the creepy man with the fingernails. He's my hero.
