Graffiti Archaeology’s Timelapse Montage of 11 Spring Street

Graffiti Archaeology, which usually covers San Francisco, has put together a timelapse montage of graffiti and street art at 11 Spring Street, the Candle Building. They’re only covering the South wall for now, but you can expect another collage of the West wall on Elizabeth Street in due time.
11 Spring Street, on the corner of Elizabeth and Spring Street was bought from Lachlan Murdoch, son of Rupert, back in July to turn into condos. Fortunately, the new owners asked Marc and Sarah at Wooster Collective to curate the final beautification, inside and outside, before renovation begins. So far, Michael DeFeo, the London Police, WK Interact, Elbowtoe, Above, Faile and Bast, have contributed to Wooster’s project. On December 16th, a huge party will take place to celebrate the new art and pour out a little OE for this dear, departing friend.
Jake at Gothamist took some photos and panoramas during a sneak peak inside the building. We’re curious to see whether nostalgic graffiti and street artists will continue painting the building after it’s turned into condos.
