Peninsula residents tell planners about local history to inspire 65 nationwide artists create art for four new BART stations. The art willfeature on walls, stairways, floors, columns, ceilings and security barriers."There's a real interest at the federal level to see that all transit facilities being constructed across the country contain public art...they have a program called Art in Transit whose goal is to see transit environments enriched by art."
