Mysterious and beautiful mosaic found in Kodak Park

You just have to see this!
While renovating a building at Kodak Park, construction workers discovered a beautiful hidden tile mosaic.
Really surprising story.

That's cool - mystifying but real cool that the new company are keeping it.

that's really cool!
Our post office here found a nice mural behind a wall they were going to redo. They kept the mural. It's a local scene.
I'll try to remember and snap a photo next time I go.

We had a ton of mosaics in the Metro, but in some of the stations they were simply smashed when it came time to do renovations... I often say that they could make at least an effort but it seems that making an effort costs too much.
