You’ll likely notice some brand new artwork on the historic Seattle Center Monorail guideway columns that line a portion of 5th Avenue in Downtown Seattle and the city’s Belltown neighborhood.
Behind the pieces is local linocut artist and instructor Leslie Moon.
Moon joined ARC Seattle anchor Steve McCarron in the ARC Lounge to talk about how she was selected for the project and the inspiration for the pieces.

I live blocks from the monorail and notice this art the moment it went up! A good way to dress up our city for the summer travel season!
The homeless, illegal immigrants, crime and crap on the streets including real crap will be a complete distraction to the artwork.
Big waste of money .. We have poop in the streets
I like it. Beats staring at drab blank columns! Really cool! Plus,i am taking the monorail with my wife to the needle this month for a romantic date. This is perfect and just in time! 🙂
Why deface the hard construction work
i walk down 5th every day living downtown and i am grateful for the colorful art on the monorail pillars. they are usually grey and boring and now they are beautiful! thank you
