It was for painting Patrick Renner's "Trumpet Flower" as part of the Main St "Art Blocks" project. Will be installed next to Main St Sq fountain.

cspwal Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 This gives a good idea what the block face is going to look like - looks like a very complete block, and quite tall. I was afraid the high rise would dwarf those buildings but at least the one on Preston looks right at home with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbannizer Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 The different tones of brick sets it apart from Catalyst and brings a better quality to it. Stucco is being used there. I was afraid the two would be too similar but from the renderings it's all brick and glass for this one. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
