Uncovering San Francisco’s Historic Creeks

You know we here are Far Out City love nothing more than the intersection of history and city planning, so this art installation coming in April has the potential to be so extremely awesome.

As part of the Market Street Prototyping Festival this April, designer Emily Schlickman and radio producer Kristina Loring will recreate the historic waterways in and around City Hall (through paint or light) in a project they’re calling “Ghost Arroyos.”

I can’t wait!
