I still can’t figure out who approved the placement of Arc of Dreams? The city council surely hasn’t.
I ask this question now because the piece is almost completed and $1 million in private money has been raised for it.
Some important questions to ask;
Will it be placed on private property (Raven and Cherapa) or city property?
Was there approval from CORP of Engineers since it goes over the river?
Depending on where it is placed (let’s assume city property) who will be paying for it’s maintenance? A large sculpture like this will need regular maintenance.
I have some of these questions into the city council. We will see what answers we get. There just seems to be a lot secrecy surrounding the project.
