The corner of Central and Myrtle has been undergoing tons of changes lately.  The neighborhood is booming. There’s a new coffee/ice cream/juice spot : Sweet Dulce in the triangle building between Central and Myrtle.

And most recently the vacant lot at the corner has been taken over by Buendia Productions. A non-profit organization based in Sunset Park, Brooklyn that supports local artists and students in creating large scale murals and art projects throughout the borough. Their mission is to unite neighborhoods through involvement in arts in their own communities and to give kids a chance to create large scale projects legally in spaces that are in need of revitalization.

The mural on the corner is an amazing mix of many artists and colours, you all should go check the progress of the work, new additions are painted everyday.

Also check out their website at Buendia Productions, which also has a video of the murals progress.
