Fortlandia installation graces Butler trail
Tuesday, June 22, 2021 by Tai Moses
An installation titled territories., an “interactive urban greenspace experience” that was featured in last year’s popular Fortlandia event at Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, is coming to the Butler Hike and Bike Trail. The installation, which has been “re-imagined to reflect the new site” by designer Mark Odom Studio, can be found here on the east side of the trail at Lakeshore Park, and will be officially unveiled this Friday, June 25, from 9-11 a.m. According to Odom, the new iteration of the piece features “wayfinding and sight lines from different access points” and will allow “even more people the chance to engage and perhaps stay a little longer out in nature.” Trail Foundation CEO Heidi Anderson said, “We’re thrilled to be partnering with our friends at the Wildflower Center to host territories., and can’t wait to see children and adults alike enjoying this new creative, interactive feature.”
