Welcome to Riverside

Completed: 2013

This mural art was originally installed on the wall of 742 Queen E in 2013, and moved to 651 Queen E in 2017. It was the Riverside BIA’s first mural as part of its efforts to re-introduce its modern identity and brand; after many years of branding as ‘Queen-Broadview Village’, the BIA re-branded to come back to its roots as ‘Riverside’ (the area’s namesake since the 1880s).

The mural design was by local artist Jessie Durham and painted on wooden panels by artist Melissa Luk.

Special thanks to local artists Emanuel Ciobanica, Shira Haberman, Andrea Manica, and Nicole D’Amario for their assistance with this project.
