Threats to Graffiti
ACDC lane is one of several graffiti/street art laneways in the the Melbourne CBD. Renamed from Corporation Lane in 2004, to commemorate a locally famous rock and roll band. Its always fascinating to walk down and see the latest urban installment. Over time I've watched the space change from empty-to building site-to residential/commercial. Urban encroachment has changed the ambiance of the area. Street art now looks bizarrely out of place.
