Photos: Muddy Waters now watching over State Street

Photo by Steven Dahlman 22-May-16 – The “Go Do Good” mural on the north side of the Stevens Building on State Street has been painted over with blues musician Muddy Waters.

The new, 100-foot-tall mural was designed by Brazilian artist Eduardo Kobra. It is part of an art project by Columbia College Chicago but Stevens Building pays for the paint and the rigging (seen at upper left in above photo) for the painters.

The Go Do Good mural, designed by artist Kay Rosen, part of a Chicago Loop Alliance project, and still partially visible in this image from May 15, had been on the Stevens Building since 2011. Photo by Steven Dahlman
