Mural #2

A Tree in Bloom

This mural depicts an old and gnarled tree, still vibrant that continues to share beauty, hope and happiness to all who pause beneath its branches. The swing invites all to pause and take a photo as though swinging from the branch. The mural is painted on the alley side of the building located at the corner of West Packer Avenue and Chacona Lane across from the Borough Hall.
