Welcoming Westerly murals

March 24, 2017 12:00 am • Last Updated: March 24, 2017 3:56 pm

In response to David Collins' rant "Stop the murals, please," (March 10). I have enjoyed many public murals in the U.S. and around the world. One of the best was in Quebec, Canada. The mural project proposed for Westerly is the perfect answer to the very ugly cement foundation at the street side of the old town hall across from the fire station. This abomination was built when Cookie Hill was lowered. It has annoyed me since I was little and a mural would be a positive addition to Westerly.
