Working next to Occidental Square provides some benefits.  Quick access to Grand Central Bakery cookies.  The time I saw 5 bald eagles perched in the trees.  This summer, it has been the random appearance of public art.

It is, of course, only random to me.  After looking into it, I learned that this piece was part of Prismatic Lightscape by MiLa.  I appreciate how it makes the square feel alive with the strips of cellophane snapping in the breeze.  You’d hardly know that most of the time the only sound comes from the ramblings of hobos.  Hey – better than nothing!
