Monday Mural: rise above

Rise Above is a newish used book shop and record store.  Additionally, they also provide free food to local residents in need.  The floating building in the recently completed mural is an accurate representation of the store's location and seems to have been done by a multi-person crew.  Apparently they are planning a move a couple of blocks down the street.  Already?

    The floating building is cool, but I'm concerned about that wrecking ball lurking on the left.
    Merry Christmas to you!

    I wonder if their new location will have a mural.
