Photos of Lincoln Road Mural Project

In case you've been living under a rock, PLG Arts has organized several local artists and children to paint a series of murals on the construction barriers along Lincoln Road and around the corner on Flatbush. After months of planning, production began last week and most of the murals are by now nearly finished.

Information about the artists and their bios can be found on the PLG Arts site. Also, Bob Marvin has posted a flickr photo set showing the mural project as a work in progress.

It's anyone's guess as to how long the artwork will remain up. The fencing was installed as part the controversial Lincoln Tower project, which ended up a casualty of the failing economy. While there's sure to be a lot of disagreement over whether the return of the development project would be a good thing or not, we can all appreciate PLG Arts' ability to make lemonade in this case.
