I get that there are some people in this thread that don't like the public art projects that are being built. Can those people answer one question for me?

a) Would you rather see different art projects? What are some examples of public art projects that you approve of? or,
b) Would you prefer that the government saved the money to fix more potholes, do more street cleaning, or whatever else?

There is some public art I like, the laughing men in English Bay are both interesting and accessible, the stacked cars are great particularly in the context next to the viaduct.

Most public art is dreadful though just because it is so dull, it is bought not because it is good but because it fills a space,
