Despite extreme heat and high humidity, members of the Cimarron neighborhood in Rochester spent a summer Saturday morning this summer repainting their "Unity" street mural. The mural is on the intersection near 48th Street Northwest and 20 1/2 Avenue Northwest.
Humidity and an extreme heat advisory didn't keep the Cimarron neighbors from repainting their street mural on July 16. More than 40 people from the neighborhood and around Rochester stopped by to paint on July 16. Painters drank lots of water, and RNeighbors Board President Bob Nowicki supplied ice cream treats.
The neighborhood applied for and won an RColorful Corners street mural grant in 2009, and has continued to keep their intersection bright and vibrant. The RNeighbors nonprofit organizes these events.
