Question of the Week | Can't answer the question in your email? Click here to view as web page before commenting. | The City of Worcester is seeking artists to provide cultural placemaking for an $11-million redevelopment of Main Street. The project, dubbed Main Street Reimagined, will incorporate public art features into the construction, which already includes bigger sidewalks and bike lanes. Do you think Worcester's public art helps the city's economy? Yes. The art actively attracts visitors and new residents. Yes. But while the art provides the city with much needed visual appeal it has little direct economic impact. No. The art is just window dressing. No. I don't like the art and think it disincentivizes people from coming to the city. | |
