I don’t really know when it got washed away, but only looked up one afternoon and it was gone.

Amazing New Graffiti at Sixth and CentralPossible portrait of Falkor the Luck Dragon The head The penny-farthing picture, bearing the phrase “park your car,” that was beautifying the SE corner of Sixth and Central, is gone. This is sad because I loved it so. It was a cheerful, lovely image blip on an otherwise blighted eyesore. It was painted on the tan (read “worst color ever”) plasticy wrap which currently encircles the Anasazi building, presumably to keep it from falling completely apart while someone does something to it.
