Item information:

Walking parallel to the Cumberland River in the central business district in Nashville.

AT&T building is a good landmark for where we parked the car.

We had a nice lunch here! BBQ ribs and chicken. Mmmmm!

Strolling past many bars and pubs.

We meet Susan, our photo tour guide, who knows where the murals are. Our first pair of murals.

Two big murals in the 5th Avenue N alley between Church and Commerce streets.

The artist's signature. Nice that the murals are respected as pieces of art.

The mural further back: Downtown Presbyterian duo of murals, artist Tavar Zawacki (5th Avenue N alley between Church and Commerce streets)

Superwide action with the murals.

Blue trucks and the blue mural work well together with the blue shirt.
