Differing effects from two wall treatments

This is Queen St in Concord, just down from where the Western Motorway crosses Queen St.  This area is a horrid mess for graffiti, and it appears there has never been a cleanup along this street in particular.

The red arrow on the left is pointing at a plain brick wall that is covered in graffiti for a good 100 metres.

The yellow arrow on the right is pointing at a retaining wall that is covered in creepers.  There is not a single spot of graffiti on the right.

From Queen St, Con...

Just shows how design can prevent vandalism.
