East 3rd Street mural blinded by the restoration


[March 2011]

The above mural arrived on East Third Street between Second Avenue and the Bowery back in March 2011... on the wall adjacent to the Project Renewal facility.

If you've been over this way in the past week or so, then you likely noticed that workers have been patching up the side of the building where the mural resides...

And by yesterday, that rough patch over the eyes had been smoothed over and painted …



Anyone recall who the artist is?

I forget his name, but he specializes in rectangles.
