The Elliott Smith Wall

2008

It’s called the Elliott Smith wall because Elliott Smith stands in front of the mural on the cover of his 2000 album Figure 8.

After Smith's 2003 death, fans began writing messages on the mural. Since then, the wall has been painted over several times, but some version still remains as of 2023.

Unfortunately, the original mural was partially dismantled in 2017 by the new owners. About half of the mural was moved inside the business. In its place are glass bricks.

The business shut down the next year.
