I think that's a good idea because graffiti can be art. I believe this idea will cut down on tagging everywhere else.

As long as it is in good taste. And the interviewee stated it would be monitored.

Jake Shepard

Who exactly will determine what is or isn't in "Good taste?" Who exactly will monitor this activity? Will the acronyms ANTIFA, ICE, BLM, MAGA, CHAZ, USA etc. be ok? How about thin blue painted lines? Gang symbols ok? Rainbow unicorns? There is already plenty of ugly graffiti to see in any major city

One centralized area is better than all over town.

I don't think this art. We should have beautiful paintings on that wall not street art.

There are already many such places where you can prominately display your individual taste in vandalizing graffiti. It's called the public restroom or the side of a train car.

Valerie Nichols

It seems odd, they painted over the cool murals because of grafiti and now they want grafiti? Who is monitoring for inappropriate images?

Kimmy Wasatch

No, what is art is not art to all. Too much leeway for slogans, etc

I do know people that are struggling to find housing. Rent continues to go up and it's hard to find a good place at a decent price.

I am myself, would love a place of my own but I refuse to pay over 1200$ for a 2 Bedroom. We scewed up by letting rent be increased every year. Sure we have them a percentage cap but we never said how many years in a row they can do it to a renter. So now yearly rent increase out does any raise or c

It's to damn expensive for rent and banks are stingy.

It's me! We are a family that has created a cleaning company providing discounted cleaning rates for veterans and front line workers. We are out here trying to do something and it doesn't go far these days.

I have been looking for housing for over a year. I am on disability, and bring in less than $1000/month, and there is no housing available for people in my situation. I have looked all around this area, and Portland, with no luck. I need subsidized rent, and the waiting lists are between 3-5 years.
