PLATTSBURGH CITY, NY -- 8/17/20
As soon as the bright sun cleared the rainy sky a trio of local artists started on a new wall mural, the latest in a series sponsored by Outside Art: Plattsburgh Art Project. This one will feature birds of the world. The work includes sprucing up a concrete barrier in the same driveway. For more info: https://www.facebook.com/outsideartplattsburgh/
With sturdy scaffolding Gharan Burton creates the tree pattern.
Kristen Larkin adds her touch to the project in progress.

Perfectly Practical

PLATTSBURGH CITY, NY -- 08/14/20
For years this stairway has sat behind the Gateway Building in the Durkee Street parking lot. As you can see it provides practical access to Broad Street. When a small project ends up this way I have doubts about a large one like the proposed Prime Plattsburgh LLC project that would displace convenient parking in the Durkee Street lot for an apartment complex.
