Curatorial note
From the driver's vantage, the orange annotation traces a curved path across the street’s central lanes, extending toward the intersection. The block in North Philadelphia bears overhead trolley lines and a row of parked cars, with yellow and orange markers emphasizing the absence of crosswalk cues and stop lines. Acquired January 2026, the work has occupied this curbside terrain for 101 days, recording a persistent feature of the street.
