Looks neat! It must be relatively newly opened, as GMaps shows it as a construction site earlier in 2021:

I think that’s one of the pieces there by Standard Transmission design shop social-page — Standard Transmission
@frauenfelder did you seen any of the phenakistoscopes working?

Yup, doppler circles. Very laborious to paint by hand but great effect…

Oh thank you! I didn’t draw it myself but helped paint it and yeah, the artist in question did a great job. Your work is amazing from what i’ve seen so the kudos has extra weight. I did make the purple doppler in the following pic though, which are very time consuming to do but look amazing under UV (and spinning!). [44118718_1224247654399121_3114880694476603392_o]
