Nostalgic New Ken wants a mural idea for the Walt’s Deli building (“Pitt-Greensburg seeks input for planned New Kensington mural,” April 14, TribLIVE). Everybody misses the good ol’ days. How about a painting of a clock? The clock across the street hasn’t worked right in years.
How about a painting of a supermarket, a clean one? I’m sure the people in the high-rises would appreciate it.
How about a picture of a cemetery, or maybe a painting of “big shots” patting each other on the back and talking about making New Kensington great again?
Anybody who’s lived here long enough I’m sure misses those good ol’ days, but being reminded of them doesn’t take away the despair downtown makes you feel. You only have to look around. It makes you want move to Lower Burrell if you could. There’s an idea — take that glorified graffiti out there. Surely they would appreciate it.
