Alligator Mural

What it is

The Alligator Mural is a large outdoor painting in South Downtown by the Belgian street artist ROA, made in 2011. On The Grid describes it as a monumental piece: an upside-down alligator whose tail curls up the wall, skirts the signage and climbs the fire escape of an old music hall.

Where it comes from

On The Grid lists the work among the Living Walls murals in the neighborhood. It appears alongside other South Downtown stops on the guide, including the Sam3 mural, which it describes as a 16-story painting, and the LNY mural.

Before you go

The mural is painted on an exterior wall, so it can be seen from the street. On The Grid gives its address as 201 Mitchell Street SW. South Downtown is the area south of Marietta and Decatur Streets, west of the Connector, north of I-20 and east of Castleberry Hill, and the guide's ROA Mural page maps other art, music and food stops nearby.
