Wayfinding
The City’s existing wayfinding standards should be used to enhance wayfinding and character throughout the study area. In addition to these signs and entry monuments, there are opportunities for large-scale public art to heighten the gateway experience at key locations (see diagram).
Public Art
Public art in the medians should be large-scale and legible to people in vehicles as well as pedestrians. The separate pieces of art could be by one artist, with a unified theme, or by different artists. Sightlines and required clearances for pedestrian and vehicular safety would need to be maintained. If implemented, the art elements could take the place of the median gateway monument signage. If monument signs and art elements are implemented in the medians, care should be taken so these don’t conflict.
