San Francisco Street, Olympia, WA
Part of a 10 year Sidewalk Levy – Three sidewalk art projects and a materials research book
Pervious concrete, Milestone, basalt, granite
The new mile-long sidewalk built for an Olympia neighborhood has visual symbols integrated into the sidewalk, stones placed in several locations for resting and sharing objects found during walks, and a retaining wall. This active community had many thoughts to share about how they viewed “walking”.
