Street Arts
New beginnings on the Reka artwork on the corner of Gertrude Street and Little Smith Street that appears on the FITZROY - Gertrude Street page of this site. See below for what it looked like on 20 January 2013.
And this is what it looked like today when I walked past it. It had already been damaged and tagged in the photo above; I am unsure if that is why they are replacing it, but the site is apparently sponsored by a beer company, organisations which move in mysterious ways.
In the case of corner of Gertrude Street and Smith Street, I am not sure whether I simply missed the figures up on the top of the advertising hoarding, or they are new. I will add them to the FITZROY - Getrude Street page as it is not complicated to add something at the end of the sequence of works and there is plenty of space on the map.
Some new deleted scenes - the following I didn't include in the COLLINGWOOD - Smith Street page because it would have meant adding another location for one work - and the rest of the graffiti around that location is all pretty much tagging.
And this one, in Little Smith Street, I did not include in the FITZROY - Gertrude Street page because I felt there were already enough examples from that street (there are quite a few others I could add too, and may do in time, but this one I particularly liked).

- Northcote Updates, Quick Gallery & Deleted Scenes
Northcote updates The Northcote map has now been added to the NORTHCOTE - High Street page. This was the last of the suburb page maps remaining to be added to the site. However... the Northcote mapping is not yet complete. Northcote has a lot of street...
- Smith Street, Collingwood Extra
The following photos are from a location in Smith Street, Collingwood that I most probably would have included on the main page, if I had found it earlier. Well... actually I did find it a lot earlier, but at the time it was not a suitable time of day...
- Light At The End Of The Tunnel
Melbourne Street Art 86 is almost complete in its initial form. All that remains is to add the street art location maps for Clifton Hill, Northcote and Thornbury, with the Clifton Hill most probably being added this evening. During the weekend I spent...
- Preston Secrets & Updates
I was working out at RMIT Bundoora today and so at the end of the day was travelling back through Preston towards Thornbury. I got out a few stops before Bell Street and walked down towards Thornbury (I ended up walking all the way to Northcote, which...
