Art
With all the interesting street art in the city I thought it was time to put together Detroit Video Daily Street Art Roll #2. Oh, and in case you missed the first art roll, here's the
link.
First Up
It may be Detroit's coolest garage. The garage behind Charlie's Bar in
Springwells Village is one that catches your eye for sure.

Sports and pool |
Hacienda Mural
This is flat out one of the best murals in Detroit. Located in southwest Detroit on West Vernor near Dragoon the mural is on the side of
Hacienda Mexican Foods.

Great Mural! |
Around the Corner
Yup, all you need to do is look on the other side of the above building and you'll find this fantastic piece of art. This is the view from the parking lot of
E and L Supermercado a great place to buy groceries when you're in southwest Detroit.

Beautiful colors |
Heading East
On the side of the
Matrix Theatre in Mexicantown is this whimsical (yes, DVD used the word whimsical in a blog post) girl blowing on a flower.

Vibrant color |
Heading North
Traveling north into the Corktown neighborhood on Michigan Avenue, not far from where Tiger Stadium used to be, is this artwork of former Tiger manager Sparky Anderson and the best baseball announcer in the history of the game, Ernie Harwell.

Two greats from Tiger baseball |
Corktown
And in the Corktown neighborhood there's a nice mural at the Mercury bar that's worth a look.

Nice landscaping too. |
Still Going
The DVD Street Art Roll continues with a trip back down to Springwells Village and the following mural on a curve.

Beautiful message too. |
There's More?
Yes, there is. But the art will have to stay in the digital warehouse until the next Street Art Roll...
