Overview

Building 180 worked alongside The Discover Polk Community Benefit District (DPCBD) in San Francisco, CA to produce 5 unique murals for the Polk Street corridor. To-date we’ve completed 3 permanent murals in the district: Liv Losee-Unger, Cora Jaeschke and Ursula Young.

Goals

The objective was to create a unique sense of space along Polk street that unified the neighborhood. These murals benefits residents and visitors alike.

Process

Building 180 worked closely with each artist and business owner to complete the murals. The project was facilitated by Ben Bleiman of the DPCBD to connect Building 180 with the business owners. Building 180 selected the artists for each space and managed the production including design reviews, equipment rental, contracts and permitting.
