The finished mural spans the 24x90' wall, and includes 26 shades of purple, and over 1200 triangles in all. It's interesting how the purple matches with the hue of the windows across at Triangle Towers, at the time of day the final photo was taken.

It is beautiful and bold on one end and then gets smaller and fades out toward the other end. Seems like she started strong and the tired of the job. I only like the bold end. Kika
WHY aren't you reporting on the upcoming opening dates on Pike and Rose? WHY DO YOU HATE SMART DEVELOPMENT!?
Kika, I think the reason it fades across is to make the wall dynamic, rather than a static pattern that would be more of a background.
9:51: Where have you been for the last week, during all of my Pike & Rose coverage? And, WHY IS YOUR CAPS LOCK BUTTON STUCK?
Bob, I think he needs some new khakis ASAP. He need to know when GAP opens so he can camp outside.
PLEASE DO NOT MISTAKE 9:51 am, 10:50 am, AND 1:03 pm FOR ME, BECAUSE I NEVER CURSE AND ALMOST NEVER SHOUT AND WHEN I DO IT IS ONLY IN lower case!!1!
Which one of you was surprised to see Bob at the Del Frisco VIP event?
What's with the high-school-style bullying that goes on in the comments section for this site? It's a common thing to see these mean-spirited posts. Is there a reason that you folks come here to do that? Without explanation, it's frickin' bizarre to see presumably grown men stalking some random dude's community blog.
