The banner, located across the street from the Cavaliers' home arena, Quicken Loans Arena, has become a popular destination for fans and tourists to revel in all "the King's" glory, but soon it will be just another empty brick wall in the city landscape.

Sherwin-Williams said it "is evaluating other options" for its Global Headquarters Wall.
