Two months after the former church that held SK8 Liborius went up in flames, the building assessment started Thursday morning in north St. Louis.

The organization Alton Main Street has commissioned Robert Fishbone and On the Wall Productions to paint the mural. Fishbone has created nearly 200 murals in his 50-year career.
