I have seen many photos of this location and have always wanted to find out where it is located and visit. This mural is an iconic location in the Short North. A trip down Pearl Street becomes much more interesting when you pass this mural of Mona Lisa on its side, a concept introduced by Chris Steele. He said that the Mona Lisa was one of the most famous Italian paintings so it seems that the Short North, an arts district, should have Mona depicted here. Brian Clemons completed this piece in 1990, making it one of the oldest murals in the district. This piece is a bit out of the way off of High Street but it is a great photo opportunity.

This building was a 1920s body shop that was later converted to condominiums. The Short North district in Columbus has a long history of arts and contains numerous small galleries, shops, and restaurants. This building captivates a lot about the history in Columbus. A project to decorate the Short North resulted in numerous murals all around this arts district. The artist chose a building that had once been a small business that was transformed into condominiums due to a rapid expanse of population and the gentrification of the Short North. High Street is now bustling with activity and young people walking their dogs. Pearl Street runs parallel to High Street and is filled with mostly apartments and back-alleyways. However, when you travel off the beaten path there is always some new sight to see.
