In light of the the discussion in the comments after Trevor's piece on Hamilton City Centre, I present this web page on a mural painter who creates impressions of traditional architecture on blank, modernist walls.
Prepare to be depressed.
Neo-neoclassical architecture painted on blank walls
This highly talented painter has taken the hideous, boxy dreck that has replaced real traditional towns and classical iconic architecture and drawn ersatz illustrations of a bygone time that are just convincing enough to remind me of how much we've lowered our standards for the public realm.
