FDB below 125th Street probably has the most new residential developments as far as uptown is concerned but has become pretty generic in some ways. Now a large mural has arrived on the side of a building by the intersection of West 123rd Street which adds a little visual appeal to the boulevard. Public art has always been a big deal in Harlem and can be found especially over on the east side or further north but is quite lacking in SoHa. A rather uninspiring parking lot fronts this part of the avenue so the mural really does perk things up quite a bit and adds some visual excitement to a bland block.
Trompe l'oeil! I used to live in this private residence. :)
