GUM WALL REMOVAL NOTICE IS A FAKE

A notice declaring that the infamous "gum wall" under the NJ Transit overpass on Baker Street will be removed is a fake, according to NJ Transit officials.

The notice, seen below, was first posted on MOL after it was put near the famed wall this week.




NJ Transit spokeswoman Nancy Snyder told Maplewoodian.com that the notice is not the work of the transit line and is to be removed.

“It didn’t come from us, it looks pretty fake to me," she said in an interview. "In this case, I don’t know what it is. It doesn’t look real. We will have people look into it.”

She said any notice from the state would have an official letterhead or logo. "We are going to immediately look into it and remove it.”
