As mentioned in the first post, the 145 revived emergency call boxes are spread around DC into 15 neighborhoods:
Cathedral Heights
Cleveland Park
Downtown
Dupont Circle
Forest Hills
Georgetown
Golden Triangle
Glover Park
McLean Gardens
Mount Pleasant
Sheridan/Kalorama
Southwest
Tenleytown
Woodley Park
The boxes' art should reflect the neighborhood characteristics and history. For instance, it might highlight the work of an important person that lived in the area where the box is, or it refers to an historical event that is important for that area's history. A few examples and comments can be found in the following websites:
Most of the artists that are/were involved in the project, are local and it might be possible for me to meet them and discuss the project from their point of view.
