We Are Walnut Hills

We Are Walnut Hills / 5 Points Alley is the final marker in a series of wayfinding murals that connects five different works of art and alleys in the newly restored Five Points Alley in Walnut Hills, Cincinatti. BLDG commissioned five artists to create the distinct gateways to the new 5 Points Alley Park which were then carefully considered by the residents and they made the decision to proceed with the artwork or not.
