Look what I found.
It’s quite mad, you know. A Madlot, is what they call it. Is it art? Whimsy? Silliness? It’s the beginning of a re-branding effort of part of downtown Covington, Kentucky to be known as Madland. Read about how it all came together here.
Sure, there are all kinds of questions associated with something like this.
Can you really drive on it? Yes, it still works as a parking lot.
How long will it last? Who knows? Who cares?
What’s the point? You must be an engineer.
Did I mention the mural? This is some serious art.
In our planning and design, we strive for a result that is greater than the sum of its parts. In a downtown environment, there are many, many parts and there is always room for a little diversity. Downtown needs its colorful characters. Covington has a good one.
