Located on the McLean Playground on Bennington Street, next to Excel Academy, which is located in the former St. Mary's Star of the Sea school, the murals tout a variety of attractions and activities, including the Suffolk Downs race track (soon to close for good -- see June 30, 2018, "Losing Bet at Suffolk Downs"); Santarpio's Pizza, which has been around as a bakery and pizza joint for more than 100 years; the MBTA's Blue line rapid transit branch; and bike riding, boating and reading books.
