Artistic Bike Rack
The Golden Triangle BID’s new “Clip Art” bike rack at 2000 L Street brings both art and function together. This creative bike rack accommodates six bikes and brightens up the business district with a playful take on a standard office supply.
The first artistic bike rack, “Bike Here”, was unveiled in May 2009. Spanning 13 feet, “Bike Here” holds ten bikes and adds a splash of color to the Dupont Metro station’s south entrance.
Both artistic bike rack designs were solicited through a call to artists and selected by a panel of representatives from the District government, the Golden Triangle community and local artists and biking organizations.
“Clip Art” and “Bike Here” join more than 350 bike racks – parking for 700+ bikes – in the Golden Triangle. The creative racks will also serve as a complement to other streetscape and public art projects in development in the Golden Triangle, such as painting alleys with graphic art, installing public art at the Farragut North Metro and Farragut West Metro stations and creating a raised, planted median along Connecticut Avenue.
