I heard it's part of the city's anti-drug campaign targeting specific trouble spots known to have wealthy youth with limited outdoor entertainment options. It's part of a whole new double-reverse psychology tactic that is being tested in a few of Seattle's prime trouble spots. Wedgwood a trouble spot you ask? You'd be surprised. I live on a bordering community. So far, they are not sure whether these "approved graffitis" are more or less effective than installing skate parks, which you may have also seen a bunch of in the last year in outlying suburban areas. We can probably expect similar paint campaigns to pop up in Ballard and West Seattle based on their crime records.

Yea, the last couple of days, I've noticed some sidewalk tagging in front of a burger joint around the Seattle Pacific University . Can't even make out what it is, but who knows? Maybe it's a conspiracy.
