Danger Train art
METRO would like to invite you to view art for its future light rail lines:
Artistic themes designed to represent neighborhoods around Metro's future light rail stations will remain on display for public comment through March 18.
Metro has chosen artists for the project, similar to the art on the Red Line boarding platforms, and last year exhibited some of their ideas for initial comment. The artists have refined their proposals and the results have been on display since Feb. 28 at each corridor's office, said Metropolitan Transit Authority spokeswoman Sandra Salazar. "Evenings with the Artists" also are scheduled at each office:
•North: 2613 Fulton, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. tonight.
•Southeast: Palm Center, 5330 Griggs. 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Wednesday.
•Uptown: Hilton Houston Post Oak, 2001 Post Oak Blvd., 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday.
•East End: 6215 Harrisburg, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. tonight.
An artist's rendering of a Danger Train crash would be most appropriate.
UPDATE: As commenter "Buffalo" Bob Speedway notes, the linked photo above is of the one fatality that has ocurred on the light rail line. That was not intentional, and I do apologize.
