a beautification of greenpoint, brooklyn

I thought this graffiti with a MySpace page, which I came across somewhere in Greenpoint, was curious enough to investigate further. I found the following quote about the project. (But let me just say, pretty as it is, this tagger violates the unspoken code: don't tag over another person's tag.)
