Don't miss the pix at the source.
I wish I hadn’t known it was gum before I saw it. It is kind of cool, though....in a yucky way.
My great-grandfather probably did some of the masonry work on those buildings. It would be nice to see it again.
Someone let Elf know about the free gum.
San Luis Opisbo, CA has a similar wall downtown. Interesting but gross.
“There are apparently no plans to prevent the gum wall from returning once the cleaning is complete.”
Proving, without a DOUBT that this IS a Taxpayer Funded Project at the Government’s Largess!
The gum is probably all that’s holding the place together!
I dont chew gum but I would hock a couple of fresh lugys into the mix just so I didnt FEEL left out.
Maybe they should move the wall to Wrigley Field.
Why scrape it off? I would have sprayed a gum-eating bacteria and fungus spores on it, then some nutrients, followed by cactus and mushrooms. It would be an eco-friendly green solution and be a source of pride for liberal Seattle. Plus a feeding site for the many homeless residents there.
This is what America the Melting Pot looks like today with its modified immigration actions.
