I think every city in the world should be doing this. It’s called Windows Of Opportunity: Shops left empty by the recession are filled by crowd sourced creative work, turning a negative eyesore in to a positive space for art.

Check it out. The before and afters are just fantastic.

Love this idea. Really smart.

The city of Chicago has been doing something similar for a few years; vacant store fronts around the city (primarily downtown in the Loop) have been made available for local artists. Walking by, you get to see the work they have created, and you may even catch the artist at work.
