STREETSCAPE ART
In city living environments, we’ve all become accustomed to streets lined with grey cement and brown bricks. With Streetscape Art and Beautification, we can turn oft overlooked areas into colorful pops of joy and enjoyment, as well as send messages of unity and pride in our Downtown.
Well-designed cityscapes encourage connection, friendship, and community spirit among residents, which in turn can support higher levels of health and wellbeing.
Revitalizing Downtown areas through aesthetic enhancements encourages resident and visitor use of the area, improving our streetscapes and beautifying the district to create a better place to shop and do business.
Utility Box Art
The Utility Box Art program is a public art initiative designed to transform common utility boxes into distinctive works of art, creating a more vibrant, attractive cityscape.
