You know who they are and thought myself that it looked like a temporary structure. Its not. I guess life evolves.

Interesting. Seems kind of self-defeating, though, to erect a structure to ostensibly protect the mural that also has the effect of obscuring it from view. And the modernist design looks horribly out-of-place (and time). Gahhh.
Wouldn't a simple awning have sufficed?
