Antoni Gaudi, Park Guell(www.greatbuildings.com) |
Vision: To create a public commons
through a collaborative process with community members and an expert artist(s).
Features:
The park could include landscaping, seating and integrated
artworks such as mosaics. There may also be a site for temporary
rotating installations by local artists.
Location: A site of interest is the traffic triangle adjacent to
Kasper's Hot Dogs, where 45th Street, Shattuck and Telegraph Avenue converge.
In response to Jane Brunner's call for ideas on how to spend
streetscape funds, we submitted
the following proposal for this site and received positive
feedback:
Art Park at Kasper's
Proposal
Next steps: We are exploring initiating a community workshop around the concept of
creating a public commons. The goals of this workshop will be
community building, visioning and exploring potential sites. |
