I would have to say crop. At least enough to take out what little sky is there. It adds nothing to it for me.

I find there are too many distractions which are competing for my attention in both pictures.
I would consider a more sever crop from the edge of the building to the edge of the window and attempt to clone out the cable going across the building.

When I said I was going to print this tonight, I meant in a dark room, so I won't be cloning out that cable...unfortunately. If that is even possible in the dark room, I don't have the skills for it.
I like this crop mostly, but I feel like the graffitti needs A little more room. It looks squashed on that side. I focus more on the doorway, when I want to look at the graffitti.
Hell, there are no rules here-- we're trying to accomplish something.
