Background

The City of Fort Lauderdale is transforming traffic control boxes into pieces of art depicting the City as a fun, vibrant, active, beautiful, diverse, connected city.

Box wraps are an affordable, tangible option for improving a community. Through this program the City has an opportunity to work with local stakeholders (i.e., neighbors, businesses, non-profits, etc.) to develop a sense of community pride and ownership that helps transform Fort Lauderdale into the “City You Never Want to Leave.” In addition, the City is able to advance its “We Build Community” mission, as some of the art designs feature neighbor volunteers from neighborhoods adjacent to the box locations.

Benefits

  • Showcase the unique character of the City and its neighborhoods
  • Promote a sense of community
