A start.

For anyone who stumbles across this Blog, I decided to start it today while walking around my neighborhood in Philadelphia. I noticed a lot of public art that does not seem to get recognized and decided I wanted to bring some attention to it. This is my first real blog so to speak, so I'm sure I'll have issues with keeping it up.

If anyone disagrees with the information I post, leave a comment I'll double-check my information and correct any errors.
