Opportunities to use aesthetics in concrete in public works projects made an impact in Fargo this year. The sound wall and the railroad bridge together combine to create a pleasing gateway to Fargo, projecting an image of a progressive and stable community. Combining local artistic talent with the technology of the precast application of the form liner and the use of colored surface textures, these projects are a departure from past practices in detail and surface finish. Congratulations to a future-sighted and practical team that made these projects come together.
