Downtown Parkville has a new mural in the alleyway between Main Street and East Street. Visitors to downtown can use it as a backdrop for selfies and other group photos. According to a post on the Main Street Parkville Association’s Facebook page, the artist behind the mural is Melissa Feris. Feris “has beautifully captured all the iconic things that make our historic town so special,” says the MSPA. Incorporated into the mural are things like the BNSF train and train depot, some of the businesses, Park University, the Missouri River, English Landing Park and more. The well-known “wings” mural remains in place at the other end of the alley.
