Xcel Energy appears to be rolling out new utility boxes in Minneapolis like the ones above. The one problem I have with these is that they’re a blank canvas for taggers. The color choices seems rather ill-conceived for a urban environments.
It would be great to see Xcel get a bit more creative with the utility box design. Something that blended in with it surroundings and was less graffiti friendly would be awesome.

What would be really money is if they took a digital photo of the backdrop and then printed out a skin that matched.
What purpose are these serving? I assume these are being used on commercial properties only – where the line from a transformer enters a single commercial property? Is the meter located in this box, or is that somewhere else?
