Before and After Transformations
Glasgow
The City of Glasgow, Scotland, commissioned artist Gabriela Marcella to reimagine the forgotten space at the entrance to Anderston Station, a major commuter hub and the nexus of major bike and pedestrian routes underneath an imposing highway bridge. Learn more about this project.
Lancaster
The City of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, introduced artful structural changes to a confusing five-way intersection in the Cabbage Hill neighborhood, creating a space that is easier to safely navigate for pedestrians, bikers, and cars.
London
As part of the Mayor of London’s “Let’s Do London” tourism campaign, launched after the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, 11 crosswalks on the major thoroughfare of Tottenham Court Road were reimagined by artist Yinka Ilori with distinctive, playful designs featuring bright colors and shapes.
