Gateway Parkette sculpture
Summary
The $270,000 Gateway Parquet sculpture project has a checked site and allocated funds but lost its original artist, so the commission is choosing between commissioning new work and buying an existing piece. Buying existing art is cheaper and avoids surprise cancellations, but installation and transport costs are still unknown.
