Blank canvas upon which to paint
by Mark Boscariol
Despite the "too gray" people have to be reminded streetscape is the skeleton which needs to have flesh added too it. New plugs allow for led "twinkle" lighting on trees and light standards. New light standards can support colorful banners and flower planters. Its up to the residents and business to now add public art. My favorite idea is cladding grey cement "Bunker" style planters with colorful mosaic tile art by local artists. We need a "complete the Street" campaign (normally used for items like bike lanes) to add these elements
