Ok, this one isn't a mural, but it's a link to a video for "Cities Rise to Fall" by Rash of Stabbings, a local band I saw many, many times at the Living Room on Promenade in the late 80s. No comments from you young whippersnappers about the big hair! LOVE this song, but I think newcomers and natives alike will get a kick out trying to recognize "Where in Providence?" with some of the shots. A lot's changed!
Haha, I wish I could see the video, but YouTube is blocked at work. I had to mention, though, my first date with my husband, way back in the early 90s, he took me to the Campus Club to see Rash of Stabbings. After the show, we wandered around the corner to Babyhead (which oddly enough became our favorite club). Ah, the memories! By then, the Living Room was gone (I think) and being originally from the Boston area, I never had the pleasure of anything other than my husband telling me what an awesome club it had been in the 80s lol
^ Isn't it just God damned gorgeous! This isn't good architecture, it is GREAT architecture. Not sure I like the clock -- it's not a train station, for Christ's sake, but it does break the facade, which was probably necessary.

Alfie, you should have seen all the buildings downtown that were knocked down before you even moved here. Just about anywhere you see a parking lot, once had a high rise building.

A friend told me that just last night! I grieve that which was lost, but I rejoice in what remains. I mean, Providence is like living museum, an art collector's trove of fabulous, stunning, one-of-a-kind buildings. Been here 15 months, still drop my jaw at the beauty of this city. I don't expect that time will diminish my awe. (Not to mention the fabulous, friendly, unique people. Yes, I'm talking to you, Providence.)
Where is it -- exactly? I pass it every day and there's usually an elderly gentleman practicing violin,or a Spanish cleaning person sweeping the floor.
