5ptz印象

This was a very cool street art exhibit on a building the artists didn't own. I'm not in favor of vandalism in the name of art. Evidently the building owner didn't favor it either. Under police protection the building was whitewashed. Unless you enjoy staring at a blank canvas, don't bother

5 Pointz is considered a graffiti mecca and is the best example of this unique American art from.Located on Jackson Avenue and convenient to both the G and 7 trains.Walk around the building and take in this form of expression - amazing. You see tributes to Beauty and the Beast, A Clock Work Orange, Dante's Inferno - all brilliant. The day we were there an artist was creating his work.Across the street is MoMa PS1, a laboratory for contemporary art.A short 10 minute walk gets you to Vernon Blvd which has some great restaurants and of course, walk a little further West and you have Gantry State Park, with some amazing views of Manhattan.But hurry - the site is due for demolition later this year.

Passed by here many a time in the past. Having grown up in the city, always amazed how such incredible pieces can come out of spray cans. Read about the owner of the property looking to develop the land a while back and knew it was only a matter of time. It was great while it lasted but it looks like it is over now.

Unfortunately in 2014 this site was destroyed by a greedy developer. So much for urban art. Hopefully someone will resurrect another site in the City to showcase Graffiti artists work. We have only photos to remind us of this landmark. It wasn't old enough to qualify for landmark status.

Unfortunately, this lovely area, 5 Ptz, was recently white washed in preparation for its destruction to make way for more high rises. Anyone who attempts to add more graffiti is said to be arrested. This was one of the most creative, colorful and artistic areas of NYC and it is sad that is no longer around. Boo to you, NYC.

Went at Christmas time and it's all painted over. Was very disappointed we didn't get to see it......

I've been seeing the 5 ptz for the past 15 odd years and its always a sight to see when you first catch a glimpse from the 7 train. Its a piece of graffiti history and a part of new York's old past when graffiti was rampant and seen as scum during the 80s and 90s. But enjoy the site of public artists while it's still here. BC they'll be demolishing the building to put up a condo/corporate building of some sorts.

We took the 7 train to Flushing Meadows Corona Park and decided to make a detour to visit 5 Pointz. I took so many photos! Seeing the art up close makes you really appreciate the effort of the artists. There were all kinds of creative murals - funny, cute, creepy and everything in between. The huge King Kong picture was one of my favourites and there was a lovely 9/11 tribute.

Owners should have left the graffiti up untill demolition. Not cool that they painted over all the great art. Im from ny born and raised this place was the last place left that reflects the ny of the yesteryear.

This was an amazing thing to see, but when artists tried to take legal action to preserve the building holding their street art, the owner whitewashed it overnight to sabotage the case.Now, I'm not saying they had a case, but it definitely closed the conversation.Not much here to see now, unfortunately.
