Crews Paint Over ’5 Pointz’ Graffiti Art


The battle over Long Island City’s “5 Pointz” complex has taken another turn.


Crews overnight reportedly began whitewashing the entire building.


This comes a week after a judge lifted a temporary restraining order stopping them from razing the iconic space.


The owner wants to replace it with a residential development.


The approved plan includes two rental towers, a park and 12,000 square feet of artist’s space and galleries.


No date has been set to begin demolition.
