Windows in SoHo

This new mural was being installed when I took a photo of it in SoHo a couple days ago. The workers, who are below the photo and out of sight, were putting final touches on it.

So how many real windows do you see?

I am not sure I would like this on my office building. Is this something that can be taken down or is it there as long as the paint lasts?

Happy Belated Birthday, my Friend! -sorry I missed it, and Gong Xi Fa Cai too. How did you celebrate both? Hope you had a Gorgeous time! I've been so busy cooking and baking for CNY I haven't been able to do any blogging for a while.
Hmm.. is this mural pasted on the front of a building? I'm not sure what to feel about it.
Have a great week!

Fantastic post. I see two windows too! I like the cat at the bottom pretend window! Is the building face flat? The art makes it look 3D, it is really, really good :)

Interesting note: When I saw this and before I read your post, I thought of a building we saw in A Coruna, Spain last fall. They were doing a lot of work on it, and they put a mural over the front so that it looked like the building was renovated. I hope I said that correctly. At any rate, when I saw your photo, it reminded me of that.
