Here they have put artwork on some of the retaining walls and buildings

to be working -- pretty sure it goes elsewhere.

I think the term for unsolicited graffiti is tagged.

All tagging is graffiti, but not all graffiti is tagging.

If a gang does it to claim territory or influence, that's tagging.

I had something similar happen to the side of the building that I occupy for my shop:

That's an anarchist symbol, not gang tagging.
Generally used by Antifa.
Are you near anywhere that's had riots??

That incident merited a call to police to document the vandalism, and consequently insurance probably covered the cost to remove it.

I hope they have someone who knows what this is. This is more serious
than just some gang-banger with a can of spray paint. It may indicate
that you've been specifically targeted, as an example or for wrongthink.

Ah. Right. Thanks for that distinction.

Perhaps the idiots were tagetting the owner's of the building, a Freemasonry chapter. The Freemason symbol is on a very large and distinct sign on the front of the building. They are my landlord. If I am targetted, I am reasonably "protected" by my landlord brothers!

That's always good!

Ah, that would do it -- targeted because it's a pro-historic outfit
regarded as Christian, therefore Antifa will attack it if given a
chance. Well, hopefully your landlord brothers are stout fellows who
won't put up with this crap, and the passing anarchists won't be back.
