Paint the Streets

By: Mr. Wilson on September 21, 2009
Mayor Beutler wants Lincolnites to be able to paint residential intersections around town. It sounds like a fun idea. A creative set of painted intersections could liven up neighborhoods and provide a fun mark of distinction in several locations around town. I wonder how long the paint lasts? It doesn't seem like that sort of art would age very well. I also wonder what topics will be painted. I would feel weird driving over, say, Martin Luther King Jr.'s head. If a neighborhood really wants to stir things up, they should commission a work from Julian Beever. His art could bring traffic to a halt in no time.

Perhaps they could paint the intersections to look like there are no potholes and only smooth, new pavement!
