A roving UHub correspondent alerted us yesterday to this swastika on the rear wall of 66 Hereford St. in the Back Bay. It was still there this afternoon, granted, in an alley behind a parked car.

Vandals
Coming into Boston on the pike I was shocked that vandals had spray painted gang slogans all the way from Yawkey station to Back Bay station. Is Keolis or the MBTA responsible for cleaning up the mess?
No.
No.

Seriously. There seems to have been an uptick in tagging over the past year or two in lots of areas of the city, or at least a downtick in cleanup.
Gang slogans?!?
Puhleeze, this isn't The Warriors.
Sure, it's vandalism but it's just kids from allston, brighton, newton, watertown, etc.

For real
I think all those crappy little "MS" tags stand for Mozart Street, which is indeed a gang.
Agreed, most are just tagging names. Although "Wolftits" would be a pretty awesome name for a gang.
MS-13
There's a huge MS-13 tag as you're heading out to Medford on the Lowell commuter rail line.
Free the Microsoft 13 ?
Graffiti
The City of Boston's Graffiti Busters crew, power washed the offensive tag away this afternoon and as usual did a great job.
This address is on the Boston Marathon route
was the graffito visible to the runners on Monday?
(I didn't see it when I biked through there Monday morning ... but it was 2:45 am then)
