Love from 6 feet away

April 6, 2020

Yesterday while walking near KU, I saw that the old “love” garage had been resurrected, albeit with a timely message about physical distancing. The story goes that in 2007 a KU student tagged the garage with the word ‘love’ in simple black script, and it quickly became a hotspot for romantic photos. Six years later, it disappeared and in its place was a new message, “Risk for Adventure.” Reaction to the change, led to an article in the paper that got a lot of attention, so much that it inspired youth artists from VanGo to restore the original “love.” That lasted a couple of years, but by 2015 it was gone too and the garage has been plain white - until yesterday…;)
