A little further south on Wabash, this gem is taking shape.  Another reader provides this beaut:

A couple of weeks ago we posted about the corridor's "Big Walls" program and recently Chicagobusiness.com provided some more background and images of the new additions to the area:

Local and international artists will have their work displayed for the next six months in the South Loop as part of an initiative led by a local college that aims to add some zest to the area of Wabash Avenue between Van Buren Street and Roosevelt Road.  

Columbia College Chicago, a private liberal arts college in the South Loop, has been placing art installations throughout the area since 2013 as part of an initiative titled the Wabash Arts Corridor to connect with local businesses in the neighborhood, said Mark Kelly, Wabash Arts Corridor chair and Columbia's vice president for student success.
