Plastic barrier, orange with white chevrons, traffic cone, metal utility cabinet
Streets Department, est. 2026
82 days on view
Curatorial note
The yellow caution tape wound around the base of the utility pole marks the site as a temporary intervention within the streetscape. Acquired February 2026 and on view for 82 days, the piece records a moment of municipal maintenance at Lincoln Drive. The orange barrier, graffiti-marked and paired with the nearby no-thru-trucks signage, renders everyday street work as a lasting feature of the neighborhood's public realm.
