      The mural is still around though it has an additional window. Information about the mural can be found in wikipedia under the search term of Brixton murals.

      I actually didn’t know there were so many in Brixton – it’s really rather exciting.
      We’ll have to do a Londonist mural walk sometime.

      I led the walk mentioned in the wiki entry. There is a google map of where they are all located. They are all really worth seeing!
