New murals are meant to make the site where the South Tower used to stand have "a more finished appearance" as 2 World Trade Center stands in wait for an anchor tenant. They're not meant to be permanent, but it is serious work. "Selected artists each received $1,000 for paint and a $2,000 honorarium. They have been up on ladders and scissor lifts spraying and daubing paint in view of tourists and downtown office workers. Six murals are completed or nearly done; two more are expected. All the works will be on display for at least a year."
