Thanks to a reader for sending word of this new mural outside the Holy Rosary Roman Catholic Church at 3rd and F St, NW.

I never noticed this mural on Florida Ave, NE before. I love it. It’s located a block east of the entrance to Union Market.
Love this one on the side of Sushi Ko on Wisconsin Avenue.

The awesome Bohemian Caverns mural was intact at 11th and U Street, NW. Only a slice remains today:

This mural was painted to deter graffiti taggers who would regularly vandalize this spot on 15th Street, NW. I’m so psyched to see that after many months – the cool mural remains. (Knock wood, knock wood.) Though this project is not affiliated, it makes me appreciate the Murals DC program that much more.

From Albus Cavus:
“Katie Cleary, a film maker sent us this documentary about DECOY painting 13th st and Park rd NW. Artist Alicia Cosnahan aka DECOY created that mural as a part of MuralsDC Program in Summer 2012. Her website is www.decoyink.com”
I’ve always like the old city green mural at the corner of at 9th and N Street, NW. They’re moving to 925 Rhode Island Avenue, NW in the spring.
Dear PoPville,
I live pretty much across the street from the cardboard pizza-maker Washington Pizza, so I watched the progress of that somewhat controversial mural. But I noticed that I assume the owner of the pizza place took it upon himself to paint in some open space of the mural: Washington Pizza parking only! In addition to spray painting the area on the ground in front of the mural. I’ve only ever seen a cop park up on the sidewalk there. And I’ve never seen anyone purchase pizza from them.
What I wanna know is where the hell does this guy get off defacing a mural with a pointless message like that? How is this ok?

Last week a reader asked the artist of these drawings/murals. At the time someone mentioned this one from 18th Street in Adams Morgan. Very cool.
