The Lawrence Arts Center received a prestigious ArtPlace grant award for the infusion of art into a streetscape project along east 9th Street, from Delaware to Massachusetts, which will make the corridor more walkable and bicycle-friendly. El Dorado was chosen to lead an urban design team for the project. Located in the city’s Cultural District, the seven block area is an important connection between historic Downtown Lawrence, the historic east Lawrence neighborhood, and the Warehouse Arts District. With a high concentration of artistic, cultural, historic and natural amenities, the design team is focusing on celebrating these aspects of Lawrence and bringing them to the forefront of the community.
