Mural of Packy - the Asian elephant at the Oregon Zoo in Portland (14 April 1962 - 9 February 2017) - marked with paint in preparation for the addition of windows in the 1892 Packer-Scott building in Portland's Old Town/Chinatown. The historic building became the headquarters of Mercy Corps in 2009, after a $25 million renovation designed by THA Architecture. This mural of Packy was painted in 1990 by North Pacific Sign & Design. Many Packy fans visited the building and photographed it from the Burnside Bridge before the mural was lost. This photo was taken on 17 April 2008, three days after the real Packy celebrated his 46th birthday.
