Throwback Thursday to the Viaduct improvements project in Downtown Jackson. Canizaro Cawthon Davis was asked by the City of Jackson to improve the experience along the railroad tracks downtown. We treated the old bridges as gateways and upgraded them with brick and stone and incorporated new sidewalks, landscaping, and art. A clock tower was created at Capitol Street. Artists Martha Ferris, Ed McGowin, and @John Medwedef were commissioned to create unique pieces that depict the richness of Jackson's history. See the images of these pieces, as well as a few glimpses of the King Edward before renovation.
FUN FACT: Did you know the Viaduct renovation was designed as a market? Imagine those market doors being open and alive with vendors, artists, local merchants, and fresh produce!
