Comments
There are indeed two name plates on the letterbox. This is a legitimate portal.
Appeal Denied - Thanks for the appeal, Agent. We have taken another look but stand by our decision to retire this Portal.
Thé only aim to remove this valid POI is to remove a HP from a payer if another faction. Not fair !
Seems to be a very odd place to find a small mosaic in a village back street, completely out of character for the area and in a very strange location for "artwork". I'd be betting this was placed there expressly for the purpose of submitting a "Couch portal".
Even if it was true that this little mural was placed there to create a couch portal, that doesn't make it invalid. I haven't seen any guidelines that say we should speculate about the reason for a POIs placement when judging it.
that mosaic look homemade and so out of place and not portal worthy from the beginning, i see no value in that small thing so high up...
No it's part of another Real location game with tons of instances in Paris and around.
Here is another example , valid POI, of the same game.
There are many other portail liké this in Paris
Please take a look an official webpage of street artist Invader:
It is too high? Village is too small? There are plenty of similar mosaic un the world. Invaders are always high and in very unexpected places!
Look also at ABOUT section of official webpage:
here you can read that everyone can make his own mosaic of space invaders and its not prohibited or treated fake. This is part of movement accepted by artist.
This mosaic is still valid street art.
Then everyone would make their own mosaic , put them in front of their house, and nominate them as couch Portal/Pokestop.
