Historically a thriving intersection in Worcester, this view from 2019 shows Harrington Corner as it was in that year, with beautiful buildings, but little activity. At the heart of Downtown, this corner will be an indicator of the success of efforts to bring pedestrians back to the area. Cities around the country are at a crossroads, adjusting to the new way people use downtown commercial districts after a shift in how people work and shop. This shift unfortunately came as Worcester was in the midst of an effort to revitalize its downtown. In 2024, there are signs of hope.

The painting is one of my cityscapes inspired by wandering around the streets of places I live or visit. I tend to exclude cars and people because they are less permanent than the buildings and infrastructure that I depict. Plus, I alway feel that cars get in the way of a lot of things.
