Congress mural parade 1 of 3: 910 W. Congress

The intersection of Congress and Grande — a couple of blocks west of Mercado San Agustin — has murals on three of its corners. We'll see two of the corners in posts this week; the third/northeast corner has The Triumph of the Human Spirit at 941 W. Congress.

Both of the buildings at the southeast corner have a history of murals. This time, let's look at the former hardware store at 910 W. Congress. Now it's Menlo Home Goods. Our post dated September 13, 2022 — Parade of murals on 910 West Congress — shows a series of photos from October 2013 to April 2022. Today, we'll take a closer look at the mural painted sometime between February 2021 and April 2022:


The third photo (with OILCLOTH KITCHEN in the middle) is from May 5, 2024. I took the rest on January 13, 2024.

In the next post, we'll head next door to 914 W. Congress.

Hidden (not) in Barrio Viejo

We don't show photos of murals hidden in people's yards or barely visible from the street. But BG Boyd spotted this one on the side of what seems to be a home in Barrio Viejo, right next to Meyer Avenue. (This April 2022 Google Street View photo shows an overview of the building, yard, and street.)
The photo came from the Victor Hernandez Mural page on his mural database at tucsonazmurals.com. (This is the fourth in a series of posts from the database.) He took the photo on August 31, 2021.
