On Sunday I got up early and waited in line for an hour to see the murals at 11 Spring Street. The building was recently sold and the developers are turning it into condos. Before renovation began, however, they invited street artists from around the world to paint murals on the walls of the building; its exterior is famous around the world as a street art canvas. The building was open to the public for three days (this past weekend). On Monday, renovation work began.
N.B. I'm trying to put links in to all the artist to the right of their work. If you see something unlabelled and know who it's by and their site please let me know. Thanks for visiting!
