Jacksonville, Florida
Murals transform ordinary spaces into unforgettable landmarks and create a sense of space.

Heartspace Art collaborates directly with developers, asset managers, and design teams to transform high-traffic sites into intentional visual landmarks that elevate market value. Whether for a new development, apartment complex, or a short-term rental property, architectural murals boost curb appeal, create photo-worthy moments, increase value, and help properties stand out in competitive markets.

Revitalizing Jacksonville: How Murals Are Driving Urban Development
In the heart of downtown Jacksonville, a powerful transformation is taking place—not just through new buildings and retail spaces, but through the creation of public murals that are reshaping the city’s urban landscape. These vibrant works of art are more than just decorative elements; they are becoming key drivers of change, contributing to both the cultural and economic revitalization of the area.
How Will a Mural Improve your Space?
- Research has shown that commercial murals increase property value by 15–32%, depending on market, property type, and wall location
- Properties with mural installations experience up to a 5% reduction in vacancy rates, with the strongest effect during pre-lease and repositioning phases
- An article by the Columbia Journalism School Newsroom covers how a New York building featuring murals by Eduardo Kobra saw its value grow from $880,000 to over $2,000,000 in four years, with a local real estate agent attributing 10–15% of that growth directly to the murals
- A report by the Creative City Network of Canada found that mural-led revitalization raises purchase or rental interest by 15–20%
- A UK property study done at the University of Warwick in 2016 compared geotagged art photos with property values and found a direct correlation between street art density and property price growth
