 Black and White Mural Image     Color Mural Image

This ceramic mural, measuring 16 ft. by 40 ft., towers over the entrance to the Radio City Building above the main entrance marquee. It was designed by artist C. J. Fitzgerald to represent the radio industry, and contains 126 different colors of tiles.

The mural was covered during most of the 70's and 80's, when KHBK-TV used the building as its studios. It was uncovered again in the early 90's, and can be viewed today at the corner of Taylor and O'Farrell Streets.
