Pyramids Will Parade For Fpatîvol
Pyramids will parade a
round uptown Charlotte for
the Arts and Science Council
Festival '78 February 13 thru
22.
An architectural sculpture
of three pyramids in graduat
ed heights of 16 feet, 23 feet
and 30 feet will be moved to
different uptown locations
each day to draw attention to
the festival.
The design by architect
Frank Blanton is based on the
architectural theme of the
Charlotte Civic Center where
many Festival '78 events will
Lake place.
The triangular bases of the
pyramids are 21 feet, 28 feet
and 35 feet on each edge,
respectively. The surface oi
the pyramids will be fabric
.supported by a metal frame
work.
The sculpture is scheduled
to be on various blocks of N.
Try on St. for four days and
on W. Trade St. one day. Then
it will make one-day stops at
the Thompson Orphanage
Chapel, the Civic Center,
Fourth Ward, the Hall of
Justice and Marshall Park.
Councilman Milton Short, a
member of the Festival Steer
ing Committee, said, "The
ASC Festival greatly adds to
the Charlotte image as a
festival city. Charlotte repre
sents many good things and
we have lots of good images.
This celebration will heighten
our image as a festival city."
Blantoo designed the pyra
mids for ASC, as a representa
tive of the local chapter of the
American Institute of Archi
tects. A team of professional
engineers from the communi
ty is doing the structural
design.
The fabric is being con
structed by Tracy Barnes of
Ballon Works, Inc. in States
ville. Jim McElduff of Inter
national Steel Erectors, Inc.
will assist in rigging the
frame. The Spirit Graphics
from Spirit Square, directed
by Gaines Brown, will move
and maintain the sculpture
during the festival.
The plan was developed in
consultation with members of
the City of Charlotte staff
including personnel from the
City Manager's office, Depart
ment of Public Works, Traffic
Engineering Department,
Charlotte Mecklenburg Plan
ning Commission, Charlotte
Transit Authority, Charlotte
Mecklenburg Insurance Advi
sory Committee, Charlotte Po
lice and Charlotte Fire De
partment.
