The Boulder Public Art Program is commissioning several works of art for the new Western City Campus pavilion lobby, parking garage and plaza. From applications that have already been submitted, the selection panel will choose three finalists who will create site-specific proposals and be interviewed by the panel.
The Alpine-Balsam property, formerly the Boulder Community Health (BCH) hospital, was purchased by the City of Boulder in 2015. Plans for redevelopment have taken shape over the past several years. The reimagined site will provide new affordable and market-rate homes in a range of housing types and will be the future location of the Western City Campus to house municipal functions and serve community members. It will include new indoor and outdoor public spaces, new streets and paths, sustainable solutions for infrastructure and buildings, increased tree canopy, a greenway for flood conveyance, easy-to-use travel options, and managed parking. More information can be found on the project webpage.
