For Art's Sake!

So, the question of the day is.... why in the world don't all construction companies/developers hire artists to decorate their doggone ever-present wooden barriers?? They could even let them do it for free, for cryin' out loud! Look at this example of what could be.

On 3rd Street, between Smith & Hoyt (our old stomping grounds!), there's some new construction going up (of course). But, the difference is in the pudding, you know. These people chose to beautify what could be yet another ugly-a. boarded up jumble as a pre-curser to yet another ugly-a. bricked up jumble. Go team! How great is this artwork!!

Do go see it before it comes down - there's actually much more to see than what we have here!
