Track How Temporary Murals Change the Air-intake Building Wall in Dewey Square Park

Dewey Square on the Rose Kennedy Greenway: Nine Murals in Ten Years, 2012-2022

I’ve set up this PAGE as a place to keep track of all the changes to one 70-by-76-foot wall of the Air-intake building, where one temporary mural has been replaced by another almost every year since 2012. Between murals the wall is painted white for a new creative beginning. (See photo below the sequence of murals for one documented transition.)

My photos in sequence, with links to Art Outdoors posts (or Greenway Art info) for each mural
