This one is pretty cool. The great use of color and emphasis on facial features with references to area, buildings and people made me like this one. Now Dunbar, I don't know the significance yet. I know there's a Dunbar sign that exists today at T and 7th Streets (I see it a lot on my walks home). The only thing I'm thinking it could be is a bank, and possibly the construction of this bank created a symbol for growth, hope and prosperity. Looking at this again, I wonder if the building on the mural is the Dunbar building I mentioned earlier. This is located on the side of the Cartie Mae? Bapist Church.
