Unlikely Art - City Hall East

There is a good chance this unlikely piece of art has already been destroyed. In the middle of the enormous building known as City Hall East in Atlanta, GA, there used to be a creative arts academy for local youth. It was suspended long ago, and the building was sold to a developer. Right now, the building is undergoing a complete transformation into a premier mixed-use development, which will become a tourist hotspot much like the High Line in NYC.

What was so striking about this, was the fact that the building is 2 million square feet of warehouse / office space, and mostly empty. Set in the very middle of the building, was one space that held a few murals like this. Even if this has been destroyed, I'm glad I had a chance to record it.
