Freeway Murals

I’ve been so proud of our Olympic murals and the way the taggers seemed to appreciate them by leaving them alone.

But no longer! According to Robert A. Jones’ essay, “A Long Goodbye for the Olympic Murals” (Sept. 27), the taggers have changed their minds and Caltrans is painting out the graffiti and parts of the murals with gray paint.

Other than write irate letters to the editor, what can we do? We’ve lost the “Freeway Lady” and it seems we’re about to lose the Olympic murals as well.
