PLATTSBURGH CITY, NY
Two guys were tired of the weeds and trash in a downtown open hole so they cleaned it up and decorated it with all sorts of stuff like a small US flag and a Minnie Mouse stuffed doll. Somewhat outre but it did spruce up the spot. The mayor -- apparently not a fan of outside art -- had all the items removed. So the artistic duo returned and added more items but the mayor removed them.
The mayor decided to cement the hole to permanently fix his problem. Couldn't a tree been planted there? It appears the opening was to make space for plant life. The spot is now just plain and ugly but it's available for any dog owners to leave their pet's shit behind like the rest of downtown.
