The Smith Street Poke

Have you seen the lot on Smith St. and Huntington, right on the Gowanus Canal?  I pass it every day on the F train, and I’m fascinated by the “Poke” mural.

I think it’s brownfield that used to be a natural gas plant, but I LOVE that mural! It’s pretty elaborate for graffiti. I want that font!

I am assuming it predates the Facebook “Poke”?  Anyone have info on the Smith Street  MPG lot Poke Mural?
