Light sculpture to adorn waterfront piers

Two stylized light sculptures will be build at the Marina as part of the waterfront project after city councillors voted in favour of them.  The 900 thousand dollar art project has its detractors, but Councillor Ken Boshcoff is not one of them.  He says the purpose of the art is to help attract people to the waterfront and it doesn't make sense to vote against it after it's already been approved in the overall waterfront budget. The projects designer hopes the beacons become a symbol for Thunder Bay
