Bridget Ingle, a member of the Friends group, said securing permission for the mural on the Grade II listed building had taken “much hard work”.
“It’s been a joy to create something that breathes new life into our city’s streetscape,” she explained.
“Kid Acne is an established local artist who truly understands and respects the culture of this art form.”
The building on which the mural has been created was opened in 1963 and is set to be redeveloped by Urban Splash into a mixed-use hub of workspaces, cafes, retail, leisure and event spaces.
Sian Stanhope, Urban Splash development manager, said the mural aligned with the ethos of the original architects of the building which had a “long-standing connection to the arts”.
