Yesterday marked the end of a wonderful street art experiment. A building on Spring Street in NYC, famous for it's street art, has been purchased by a new developer. The developer contacted the Wooster Collective, and arranged for an amazing festival of street art. They invited artists to cover the building in art. Inside and out.
Until yesterday. This week, they'll power wash the outside, and begin installing sheetrock on the inside - creating a street art time capsule for people in the future. Coolest developers ever. Wish I could afford the condo that will feature Shepard Fairey's art underneath the walls, pictured above. Check out the fab collection of photos over at Gothamist.
