Weber Street Reconstruction - College to Union

I think with a lot of public art, at first, the reactions will be very mixed, possibly leaning more on the side of skepticism as seen here.

Remember the rusty bell in Waterloo Square? Everyone thought it was odd at first, and now it has somewhat grown on the community.

Creative cities need to have public art that appeals to all tastes, and while the shoe might not be everyone's cup of tea, it definitely reminds us of our industrial-textile past.
