Some will cheer, and some will jeer, but destiny will run its course regardless; now, as planned, the beginnings of the new Bernal Heights Library mural are in place on the building’s Cortland facade.
Here’s where it will ultimately end up:

I don’t like it as much as the old mural, but definitely an improvement over the blank facade! Yay!
I can’t wait for the new vibrant, colorful, energetic mural to be finished!
I loved it blank, but am resigned to the inevitable. *sigh*
Yeah, the few days of having the blank facade were very nice, but oh well.
FYI, Reuben Rude has also started work on the Moultrie façade. Primer is up!
Can’t please everyone…
It was said on this site before but I will say it again: tramp stamp.
Word
It reminds me of a moustache. its ridiculous.
Tramp-stache?
Pretty lame…. but the Aztec-sun-god-whatever side is worse. IMHO.
Like THAT’s a real improvement. At least the old on screamed 94110.
Better than what was there before. Plus, this mural more closely represents the library — the graphic is styled to suggest pages of a BOOK. I think the mural will be excellent.
Looking good. Much better than the blighted mess the old mural was. Besides being a huge improvement, it is indicative of the continued upgrades to the neighbhorhood.
I thought everyone would like to know that the cast-bronze book which is part of the Cortland-facing artwork is now up on the library!
