An artist's rendering of a leafy, historic University City street is the second collaboration of the Philadelphia Department of Recreation's Mural Arts Program and UCD. The scene depicts composite elements from University City neighborhoods: a trolley car, girls jumping rope, Calvary Church, beautiful trees, and Victorian rowhouses. The artist is Max Mason, once a University City resident and presently an instructor in Design Arts at Drexel University. The work was sponsored by GMAC Mortgage Corporation and UCD.
