The Simpsons mural painted on the wall of a distressed building in New Orleans by the infamous British street artist turned contemporary provocateur known only as Banksy after suffering years of vandalism and decay became in need of rescue. A salvage plan for the wall was ultimately engineered between legacy interests in London, New York & New Orleans to effectively save the piece from unnecessary destruction. The Simpsons mural wall installation by Banksy can now be safely viewed free to the public just blocks from its original location at the corner of North Rampart Street and Esplanade Avenue within the Habana Outpost neighborhood of the French Quarter in New Orleans.
