A graffiti marriage proposal which became a symbol of a city has been removed by developers.
Jason Lowe's public display of affection was spray-painted on a bridge at Park Hill, Sheffield, in 2001.
His bid to woo girlfriend Clare Middleton formed part of the city skyline, inspired a track by singer Yungblud and appeared on a t-shirt worn by Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner.
Urban Splash said the graffiti was removed for "essential repair work".
Sam Feeley, who lives in one of the renovated flats, said he noticed the writing - I Love You Will U Marry Me - had been removed on Sunday.
