Brooklyn Bridge Pedestrian Improvements

Working closely with the DUMBO Improvement District to create a more welcoming transition from the Brooklyn Bridge to the Brooklyn streetscape, emphasis developed a system of bold signage and conceptualized the creation and placement of public art to encourage visitors to explore the adjacent neighborhoods. The system included wayfinding signage, concrete welcome mats, a cast compass rosetta, and a large-scale light art installation mounted to the overpasses on Washington and Prospect Streets. The project was closely coordinated with the NYC DOT, Department of Cultural Affairs, and local community groups. The final installation coordinated with the 125th anniversary of the bridge.
