Maybe someone cares about the Hibernia Bank after all! As we speak, a cleanup crew is out on the ledge at the iconic Hibernia Bank at Jones and Market cleaning off the ambitious tagging efforts of Pemex and Sestor that appeared last month. They've been at it since yesterday, and the graffiti is only about 40% scrubbed.

We suppose Dolmen Property Group, the building's owner, wants to keep it looking nice in case a daring retailer might want to scoop up the historic property.

Something tells us we won't be getting a West Elm in there anytime soon.
