Greetings Commissioners and cultural arts folks!

I wanted to throw out two things for anyone's input or thought.

1. I cannot stop thinking about the sidewalk presentation that Chris Roberts, the engineer from the town made, especially the potential to include public art. Someone said the idea for a bus shelter and I think that would be really great for that spot on the east side of MLK between that Marathon Station and Taylor St. That area could really use a bus shelter, as there are often adults and children waiting on the bus there that seem dangerously close to the busy road.

I think we had talked about doing some kind of Rosa Parks/Black History Month project with an actual bus a few meetings ago, right? Maybe a bus shelter could have a theme honoring the Civil Rights Movement or the history of the African-American Community in Chapel Hill?

Some of what other folks have done with bus shelters: https://nextcity.org/daily/entry/public-art-bus-stops-photos


2. I was reading an article about a proposed development near where I work and I saw an interesting quote suggesting a possible new hope for Deep Dish Theater.
