TROY — A new three-story mural celebrating Troy’s resilient spirit and storied past appeared almost overnight at one of the city’s most prominent intersections.
References to Troy’s boxing culture and famous crow roost add layers of local flavor, converging at a focal point that draws the eye across the river’s expanse.
Artist Greg Gossel captures Troy’s fighting spirit with a depiction of boxing Hall of Famer Kevin Pompey, also known as the Troy Tiger, on a three-story mural facing the Green Island Bridge.
