The space at North Rosalind Avenue and East Central Boulevard was previously occupied by a building that once housed a 7-Eleven convenience store.

It now features larger-than-life river stone-like benches, trees, a small lawn and the centerpiece -- a six-story mural painted on the west wall of the neighboring City Centre building.

The mural, which is called “Achromatic Aria Fresco: An Ode to Harmony,” was painted by Peterson Guerrier and Chris Jones, of Red Tape Orlando, and has been in the works since early November.

The artists said they sought out to “weave together the essence of monochrome artistry with the fluidity of a musical masterpiece.”
