NAPLES – New cleaning operation in Piazza Municipio to combat urban vandalism: this morning, at the request of Mayor Gaetano Manfredi, Napoli Servizi workers went into action to remove numerous graffiti made with spray paint on various street furniture.
The operations involved the entire square, already the target of vandalism in the past, with particular attention to the area of the Fountain of Neptune. Here, the seats and marbles that cover the semi-circle were defaced with particularly visible graffiti.
This is not the first time that the Municipality has intervened to restore the decorum of the area: last October a similar intervention was carried out. The episode rekindles the debate on the need for greater controls and preventive measures to protect the city's heritage.
