Kudos to the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation for keeping our monuments clean. While standing in front of my listing at The Monterey waiting for a buyer, I watched a woman from NYC parks and recreation clean "Lafayette and Washington" the monument at Lafayette Square. Hopefully she was able to get out the blue graffitti stain on the monument's base. The spray didn't seem to do the job so it looked like they patched it and covered with tape.
I'm having an Open House at The Monterey (directly opposite the monument) today from 12:30 - 2:00 pm. I'm hoping they were able to restore it. I'll take a new picture.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
