places with graffiti wall

This is a discussion on places with graffiti wall within the Dallas / Fort Worth forums, part of the Texas category; I know there are some in deep ellum. Wondering if there are such walls anywhere else?...

There is a really cool water tower at The Greenhill School off of Spring Valley (cross street is - Midway) in Addison. The water tower is all tagged up from the kids and has some really great stuff on it. There is usually an activity going on during the weekend and they do have security (off duty Addison and Dallas PD officer) ...but if you find them and let them know what your are doing...they are pretty cool about it.

I shot some senior pics there but I am at a loss for where they are at right now.... do a drive by and check it out...it is a good spot! Quickest way is to enter off the Midway entrance (just on the left as you travel north on Midway from Spring Valley) follow that entrance past all the speed bumps to the last parking area....the tower is on your left and the base is on the ground...perfect for the back-drop, and super easy as you can park right in front of it.

Hope this help,

Warren

This is part of the over pass under 360 just south of 121. I parked along the service road just past Bear Creek baseball fields.

In Ft. Worth, check out the E 1st St Bridge over the RR tracks just East of Riverside Drive. That used to be totally 'planned' graffiti..

Most of Deep Ellum is gone. There are some on my website from there. The road that had them on there is now covered in dirt and filled in to make way for a new road.

I know of a few places in Ft. Worth with some incredible graffiti. PM me and let me know what kind of shoot you're doing and we'll see if it'll work for you.

Look up the crime statistics online and head for the area with the most.

I am kidding (sorta).
