I would be inclined to believe that they are likely being housed there and not being covered by news agencies. Possibly that is how it has gone unnoticed for as long as it has. You mean to tell me all of those floors were tagged and nobody was able to stop some of those floors from being tagged??

That should be a prison worthy offense. There was a tagger in the 90s "GKAE1" who got busted for vandalism like that and did years in a state pen. You get what you allow.

Graffiti terminology; a tag is a name written or sprayed with paint. Those are letters which have been filled in, which are called "pieces". Also, they are not merely" tagging". They are collectively "bombing", which takes more time, detail, and uses a greater amount of color than tagging.
