Artist

FC Youth

Year

2010

Location

Old Firehouse Alley, between Pine and Linden Sts., north of Walnut St.

Description

Art in Public Places worked in cooperation with the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) to create 60 granite pavers for the second phase of the DDA's Alley Enhancement Project. Drawings by local youth were selected through an open competition, and sandblasted into the pavers. Twenty pavers were created in each of three different themes, which are placed in the three enhanced alleys.

Pavers in the theme of "History" are in the Old Firehouse Alley, between Pine and Linden Streets, just north of Walnut St.
