HOUSTON – A mural in The Heights neighborhood honors the first World Series win by the Houston Astros in a big way.
The art on the east side of Sublime Heights, a car upholstery shop at the corner of East 20th and Arlington streets, was painted by David Flores, also known as Skeez181.

In addition to the Astros logo, the mural features the phrases “Earned History,” which is the past-tense of the slogan the team and fans sported during the season, and “Houston Strong.” It also showcases the city’s skyline encircled by the World Series trophy.
