I'm answering my own question as I did a little search and found out that the murals were given to the Treasure Island Development Agency in 2001. I called them and they said the murals are in storage and they have no current plans to display them as all the old buildings on Treasure Island need to be earthquake retrofitted before they can be opened again. So, it looks like it will be a while before they are displayed. I don't know why they don't just display them in the Ferry Terminal.

The Ferry terminal has been totally gutted- there's no place there for them anymore - the big stairway was taken out. Besides, they don't fit with the fancy upscale farmers market (for farmers who grow little tiny glass jars of Meyer lemon curd and cilantro pesto). Really sad. I hope they're being well taken care of.
