On Saturday, March 9, 2019, the Richmond Highlands Neighborhood Association proudly dedicated their new mural with a ribbon cutting ceremony.

Rain was threatened but the day turned out sunny

The mural is on the back of the building housing Spiro's Pizza and Pasta Restaurant and faces N 185th St. It is highly visible from southbound Aurora and serves to mark the neighborhood territory.

The mural prominently features the Interurban Trolley, whose tracks cut through that property on its way to Firlands Sanitorium.
