Remarks:
Funded with a National Endowment for the Arts, Art in Public Places grant of $28,000 given in 1986 to Maryland Art Place. Additional funding was provided by the Municipal Art Society. The piece is a collaboration between Jeffrey Schiff and Peter Doo, architect. Original design called for the paving to continue across the street and onto the sidewalk where several granite columns were to emerge. The piece was to be a visual link between Market Center and Charles Center, two distinct redevelopment areas. IAS files contain Downtown Partnership of Baltimore, Inc.
