Overview
- The Gustavo A. Madero alcaldía inaugurated a 203.46‑meter mural that Guinness World Records certified as the world’s largest brush‑painted mural, sited at Avenida Centenario and Oriente 157.
- A team of Mexican artists led by Carlos Alberto Badillo Cruz executed the work, with contributions from José Cruz Pacheco, Andree Orozco, Francisco Thomas Arriaga, Vivian Velázquez Ventura and Christian Zúñiga Lazcano.
- The composition blends football imagery with Mexico City landmarks such as the Palacio de Bellas Artes, the Ángel de la Independencia, the Basílica de Guadalupe and Estadio Banorte.
- Neighbors, local artists and several former Mexican footballers attended the unveiling, and officials presented the project as a collective achievement born of citizen participation.
- Authorities framed the mural as part of broader place‑making efforts that include sidewalk rehabilitation and the Sendero de Paz, Seguridad y Esperanza corridor, which they say could boost local pride, public use of space and the area’s visibility.
