New York State Department of Transportation Commissioner Marie Therese Dominguez unveiled draft design concepts for decorative murals that will adorn retaining walls along Business Loop 81 and surrounding city streets as part of the transformative Interstate 81 Viaduct Project. NYSDOT encourages community members to review each one here and offer feedback that will help inform the final designs. The aesthetic concepts were developed with characteristics of respective communities at the forefront and are intended to encourage suggestions and collect insights on ways the design proposals can be improved or better reflect the neighborhoods they represent. 

"The Interstate 81 Viaduct project is a once-in-a-generation project that is transforming the City of Syracuse and we want to take every opportunity to incorporate the city’s rich history as well as the spirit of the various communities across Syracuse, in different elements of the project we are building,” Commissioner Dominguez said. “The decorative murals will help highlight what’s special about the city and its surrounding communities and I encourage everyone to review the draft concepts and provide feedback so that we can create something that is truly spectacular.”
