Offensive sidewalk under seige by City Hall

davids house

I wrote about this house when the City tried to demolish it and “later when they tried to make the owners”:http://www.squanderedheritage.com/2008/08/23/the-city-of-new-orleans/take down a fence. And now they want them to take the paint off the sidewalk.

Really? In a City where we don’t have sidewalks or streets for that matter you want them to cover up the paint.
