AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD
36th ART (Avenue Revitalization & Transformation), a resident-led coalition of Seward and Longfellow community stakeholders in partnership with SPRAYFiNGER® and Hiawatha Collegiate High School, have transformed the railroad/Greenway bridge over 36th Avenue South with the production of two 80-foot wall murals. The aging bridge, built in 1908, is part of the final stretch of rail before it crosses the Mississippi River. “The goal was to reimagine the bridge as an interpretive landmark and a connecting point for our two neighborhoods. The vision expanded and we now seek to partner on more public art along the blocks north and south of the bridge,” said Jack Becker, 36th ART Project Manager. The mural was dedicated on Nov. 11, 2023. (Photo submitted)
