Glidden Graffiti

I have to say, the graffiti amazes me as much as the building and equipment. I hate the taggers for what they do to sites like this, but some of these works are just amazing. I have a pic of one downstairs that said "our art has brought this building back to life [...] please respect", and I certainly agree.
