#6 Light Channels

Using two underpasses at Commerce and Houston Streets, "Light Channels" illuminates a visual barrier between San Antonio’s Convention Center and a shopping center that had minimal foot traffic. Light Channels encourages visitors to cross under the highway, through the barrier, opening a new flow of customers. This project was a collaboration between the City of San Antonio, the County Government, TX DOT, a downtown business association, and artist Bill FitzGibbons.
