"27-Story DTLA High-Rise Vandalized by Taggers"

Taggers openly added graffiti to a partially completed skyscraper in downtown Los Angeles, covering at least 27 floors of the building, which sits across from the site of the upcoming Grammy Awards. The $1-billion Oceanwide Plaza project has been stalled since 2019, and the lack of security has allowed taggers to access the site freely. Despite the vandalism, some view the graffiti as a way for people to use neglected spaces and make the city feel more "human" again.
