is this a segment of the midtown art walk?
i believe they’re going to be illuminated after dark.

Yes, that's part of the art walk. There will be installations like that along the length of it.

Piedmont Park launches expansion efforts

The conservancy kicked-off a campaign to raise $3.5 million for expansion, lighting installation on the active oval, and general landscaping and maintenance. Masterplan drafting starts this year.

Seems more appropriate in this thread .

These special crosswalks are all well and good and i know its part of the Art Walk, which probably has different funding sources, but i really wish Atlanta could get all of its cross walks and street lines painted.

Thanks for the pics though, Julien. I'll need to walk this path one day.

Blue paint fades really fast. I’m afraid this is going to be high maintenance for whoever is maintaining it.

The new crosswalks looks very good but like someone else said could be high maintenance.

Concerning but the Rainbows on 10th & Piedmont hold up to MUCH heaver traffic. Although the Ped Xrossing on 10th & MARTA Midtown will see heavy traffic. Only time will tell.

Very glad to see this! I recently walked through COP with an out-of-town guest and the condition of the fountain was ridiculous.

Why they can't just do a fast build like they did with spring street and reduce the size of the giant lanes each way and add bike lanes on this road and on Peachtree place. It seems like such a low hanging and fast build to do, with both having enormous widths for each lane. And there are very few east/west bike lane routes shrug:
