Photo of the Day: Painting the Merrill Lynch Building

If you were at the Mall in Columbia, you may have noticed the painters working on the Merrill Lynch Building.

I snapped the pictures above around 3 p.m. as they were working on the west facade of the building. When finished the building will be completely white, as opposed to the previous brownish yellow.

Howard County Council chairperson Mary Kay Sigaty took a similar picture this morning, posted it to her Facebook page and wrote, "The Merrill Lynch building, in Downtown, is getting a sprucing up. Another example of confidence in Columbia's future."
