4. Richard Haas Mural Restoration at 112 Prince Street
Richard Haas’ iconic 112 Prince St. mural is currently being repainted by muralist Robin Alcantara and his team. The original trompe l’oeil mural was created in 1974 to mirror the front-facing facade of the 19th-century building. Over the years, graffiti and weather have worn on Haas’ work, leaving only a shadow of what it once was remaining. Alcantara’s venture to completely repaint the mural was a long time coming, and Soho residents and tourists alike will be pleased to see the newly refreshed final product. The painting of the mural is expected to be completed on November 1st.
