Jackson began restoration work to the landmark in April 2003 and it was re-unveiled in November 2004. Additional repairs took place in October 2005. The mosiac was covered with a tarp in August 2007. A consultant concluded the mosaic was not built properly. A series of lawsuits has resulted with no resolution as of July 2011. Jackson accepted $125,000 to relinquish rights to the art and in May 2012, the University had it removed.
