Syracuse, N.Y. --- The front of Syracuse’s City Hall will be getting a facelift this summer thanks to local artist Jessica Whitley.

Whitley’s asphalt art design was one of a group of finalists and[URL='https://www.syracuse.com/news/2022/04/want-to-redesign-city-halls-driveway-with-a-mural-syracuse-seeks-proposals.html'] won a vote held by the city this summer.[/URL]
Her work will be installed over the late summer and early fall.

In addition to her mural on the pavement, the City Hall plaza will eventually feature tables and chairs for public use and flower planters that will help keep vehicles out of the space...

In the artwork, the roots of a tree are held up by the people of Syracuse. The image is broken into puzzle pieces, which signify the ideal way the city’s diverse people and cultures fit together.

“The mural should act as a reminder of what we can do in the heart of our city when we put all of our pieces together,” Whitley wrote in her description of the piece. “While the world is chaotic as ever: We are stronger together.”

Whitley was born in Syracuse and graduated from Henninger High School and Syracuse University."
