Carl Zehr Square renovations

[ac3r]

We haven't been able to have nice things for a long time. Nice things get destroyed be the idiots roaming the city. That said: I have never loved naming anything after anyone. I have always thought of it was wrong. Perhaps I am not the only one -- but my guess this was done so we can't have nice things, and not as a message of any sort.

When they rebuilt the IHT, they put in attractive wooden benches. It wasn't long before they were vandalized by spray painters. Removing the paint also removed the finish, ruining the look of the benches. They had to replace them with easier to repaint black metal ones.

Spray paint at least isn't a big deal. They should have just left it instead of wasting the money replacing entire benches. Spray paint on stuff is part of living in a city.

Vandaizing a sign like in the picture is scummy though.
