In perhaps further evidence of the rise of NIYBYism, the latest anti-advertecture campaign comes not from within the city but from Amsterdam. Dutch student Justus Bruns wants to replace Times Square's billboards with artwork, and he's used his website to raise enough money for airfare to New York. But since most Times Square billboards are already leased long-term, we hope he didn't bring much advertecture-killing artwork with him on the plane. [DNAinfo]
