I agree, it is an interesting picture. It doesn't look like a commissioned work, or if it is, it isn't obvious who is paying for the new coat of paint. Do you know the story behind this?

Nice lighting and composition. I remember Salada Tea back in the '50's and '60's.

Thanks! I haven't found out yet who's behind it. Probably some artist, I'll give the city hall a call and see if the know anything.

@Blacknight659 @SuperSyx @lesmore49 Thanks guys!

Thanks!

BTW I did find out who did this. The artist is Maser . The building is slated to be demolished within the next couple of years.
