The raw three-story concrete MTA ventilation tower, located at 7th Avenue South and Greenwich Avenue, is such an inviting visual insult that a graffiti artist could not resist and relieved himself with red paint in fat letters. Now that its virginity has been despoiled, we can expect an orgy of graffiti.
WestView asks you to vote on how to make this, the ugliest structure to be erected in the West Village, into something more acceptable, maybe even a sightseer’s take-home photo.
We offer three solutions, as depicted in the images below:
1. Historical Re-creation

2. Ivy Cover-Up

3. Unique 9/11 Monument/Mosaic

We ask that you email your vote and comments to editor@westviewnews.org.
