Over the New Year holiday, huge murals were installed on the mezzanine level of 2 World Financial Center showing what the building will look like when construction is completed in 2013.

Jan. 2 may have been a holiday for some, but not for the billboard hangers who spent the day and evening putting up elephantine murals on the Winter Garden mezzanine. The renderings show what 2 World Trade Center will look like inside and outside when construction is finished in 2013.

Journey Communications Inc. designed the murals and Britten Services is doing the installation. All of the renderings are on the World Financial Center website at http://www.worldfinancialcenter.com/wfc-2013-vision.

During construction, Arts Brookfield programming will continue in the World Financial Center along with new events in partnership with community groups, with details to be announced. Next up is the New York Guitar Festival on Jan. 6 at 8 p.m. with music and a film that pay tribute to the NASA moon landings followed by a concert by the Knickerbocker Chamber Orchestra on Jan. 14 at 7 p.m. Both events are free.
