Sitting at a traffic stop can be boring and unentertaining at times, but the City of Fort Pierce brightened the community by enhancing those dull, metal plated traffic signal boxes with stunning Fort Pierce photography and illustrations. 15 traffic boxes have been decorated throughout the city and are
colorfully themed in accordance with the intersection.
For example, Avenue H and US 1 features a gorgeous night-time photo of a ship in the Port which is seconds down the road from the Port of Fort Pierce at Fisherman’s Wharf. Another beautiful example sits on the corner of Orange Avenue and Indian River Drive where orange blossoms, done in watercolor, wrap the traffic box and light up the intersection, giving passers-by something to smile at. Orange Ave and 5th Street, as another example, captures the history of Fort Pierce with retro photos, some dating back to the 1900’s and sits near the historic Arcade Building.
