The return of the cowboy on Avenue A

The cowboy mural by Solus made a return appearance to 50 Avenue A yesterday.

Back in June, Solus (via the L.I.S.A Project NYC) put up a nearly identical cowboy here between Third Street and Fourth Street...

However, the landlord of the vacant space had the mural painted over for whatever reasons within several days. Perhaps it will stick around longer this time.

This retail property has sat empty since the Citibank branch closed in January 2017.

Less than a week since its arrival, someone painted over the mural that Solus (via the L.I.S.A Project NYC) created last Friday at the former Citibank branch on Avenue A between Third Street and Fourth Street...



Perhaps the landlord prefers this look...

Cowboy up on A

Over on Avenue A yesterday, Solus (via the L.I.S.A Project NYC) started work on the above mural here between Third Street and Fourth Street...

And today...



This retail space has sat empty since the Citibank branch closed in January 2017.

And how the space was looking before the cowboy mural arrived...
