Corbin contributed to a more<br />

attractive Oklahoma <strong>City</strong> by<br />

developing an elegant wayfinding<br />

system for a two-square-mile<br />

section <strong>of</strong> the city’s downtown.<br />

The new unified sign system<br />

is designed to be functional<br />

and attractive, and replaces a<br />

“hodgepodge” <strong>of</strong> dissimilar signs,<br />

said <strong>City</strong> Manager Jim Couch.<br />

The system includes 45 vehicular<br />

signs and 22 pedestrian signs<br />

along with 27 kiosks for more<br />

detailed visitor information.<br />

The new signs point visitors to<br />

key downtown destinations,<br />

including the site <strong>of</strong> the 1995<br />

Alfred P. Murrah Building<br />

bombing, now the Oklahoma <strong>City</strong><br />

National Memorial. Also included<br />

are destinations in Bricktown,<br />

a converted warehouse district<br />

that is home to the city’s ballpark<br />

and many restaurants, as well as<br />

a growing arts district and other<br />

entertainment venues.<br />

The look <strong>of</strong> the signage is<br />

based on an art deco motif to<br />

reflect downtown architecture.<br />

<strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficials hope to increase<br />

pedestrian traffic through the use<br />

<strong>of</strong> trailblazer signage, to areas<br />

including the memorial, Bricktown<br />

and the arts district.<br />

Interstate 40 serves as the<br />

southern boundary <strong>of</strong> the project<br />

area, providing lots <strong>of</strong> potential<br />

traffic to the area and increasing<br />

the need for accurate and<br />

effective wayfinding.<br />
