Encourage the location of public and private art within or adjacent to
the right-of way.
Sculptures, wall murals, fountains,
decorative walls, and custom designed
furnishings can enhance the streetscape,
create a local and distinct District character
and vernacular, and educate visitors about
the historic and cultural signifi cance of the
District. Campuses, public plazas, and open
space surrounding industrial facilities within
public view are good locations for sculpture
and other larger format art installations.
