Decorations on the Minisa Bridge in Wichita, too near where I live. The Indian heads and buffalo, kitschy though they are, are Architecturally Significant as examples of Carthalite. The bridge is scheduled to be rebuilt beginning next month, and during the process the arterial traffic will be detoured to the street where I live. The construction process will take longer than usual for such projects, because the city planners want to preserve the art. I’m slightly sympathetic, but only slightly; this means a year of ugly traffic outside my door.
