Utility box covered in graffiti
The longer it stays up, the more it invites. That's how tagging works, steps from Ogden Jr Public School.
Fixed, and a neighbour went back to check.
Someone from this neighbourhood walked past on April 22 and confirmed the work was done, 1 day after you reported it. That is the loop closed by the people who live here.
Marked resolved Apr 22, 12:40 AM
Closed, on the record
Fixed in 1 day.
Huron Street in Spadina-Fort York is a little better today because somebody said something, neighbours stood behind it, and the city finished the work. That is how this is supposed to work.

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter
A metal utility box on the residential sidewalk at 49 Huron Street is heavily covered in spray-painted graffiti with red, blue, cyan, and white tags and outlines across its front face and sides. The graffiti obscures warning labels and safety markings on the infrastructure. Dead vegetation and weeds are growing at the base of the box, which is secured behind a metal safety fence.
