8.  Keith Haring- Crack is Wack, 128th and 2nd Avenue

Keith Haring Crack is Wack Mural FDR Drive 128th Street Harlem NYC Untapped Cities

Restored by the late artist’s estate in 2007, Keith Haring painted this orange and black mural on the opposite side of a handball court wall in 1986 as a reaction to the raging crack-cocaine epidemic in New York.  This “Crack is Wack” mural was one of the best surviving murals that Haring produced illegally, which is ironic considering the city’s Department of Parks and Recreation was behind its restoration and protection.
