A ceiling-hung artwork built from flexible LED screens is expected to go up in the lobby vestibule of Frisco City Hall in mid-November, according to the parks department's November report to the City Council.
The report says the city's public art staff are working with the studio of artist Daniel Canogar to set an installation date. The screens will run a custom display of color and movement programmed to respond to live weather data from Frisco, the report says. It includes a concept image but does not give an exact day for the installation or a cost.
The report, from the department that brands itself Play Frisco, is on the agenda for Thursday's Parks and Recreation Board meeting at 6 p.m., along with an overview of the department's 2027 budget and an update on Frisco Commons Park.
Crowds at the new parks
The document also puts the first numbers on two projects that opened this fall:
- Northwest Community Park on Teel Parkway has drawn more than 62,000 visitors since it opened Sept. 19. Heavy October rain damaged its Flow and Free Ride trails, and operations crews reshaped and reopened them within a few days, the report says.
- The Rail District counted more than 4,200 visitors during its Oct. 13-17 opening week, which started with a ribbon cutting at 4th Street Plaza. Almost 2,000 of them came on the first day.
