Drive by 12th down SE Morrison and you’re thinking “if I make the lights I can make it to my appointment downtown on time…” and not looking for art.
Blink and you’ll miss this neighborhood mural of Buckman, home of the semi-abandoned Washington High School, St. Francis Park, Girls Inc, Buckman University, Buckman School, Foti’s Greek Deli, Lone Fir Cemetery and Crema. And quite a bit in between.
This mural was made in 2004 by someone who signed it Frost Images. It is either unfinished or was quickly finished. There are parts which are missing. It has a nice, geographically-correct compass-map. It’s not listed on Metro Murals site (which hasn’t been updated or changed in several years) or RACC.

[...] A wonderful geographical mural of the Buckman neighborhood by Joe Cotter is underway at 12th and SE Morrison. This replaces another Buckman mural shown here. [...]
