Spacing Wire and Photojunkie both report on whether the secret swing is finally dead this time. According to Photojunkie, this time the swing really does appear dead. Someone has taken the extra step of installing chainlink fencing and removing the metal bar that held the swing.
While we’re sad to see the end of a little piece of urban art we agree with Matt B.’s assessment at Spacing Wire:

In just two weeks we’ve lost two great little public interventions. Sadly, we must accept this as a part of living in a city where things are often transient and ephemeral. While it is frustrating to see these losses, it also means we have other surprises waiting for us, other projects in the works that can inspire and make us smile slyly. The City of Toronto has declared 2006 to be the Year of Creativity, so why not go and be creative?
