PINK BALLS BY CLAUDE CORMIER ARCHITECTES PAYSAGISTES

Montreal, July 19, 2011 – What better than 170,000 pink balls suspended high in the air to enliven Montreal’s Sainte-Catherine Street East as it transforms for the summer into a pedestrian mall? The plastic balls, in three different sizes and five subtle shades of pink, are strung together with bracing wire, crisscrossing the street and stretching through tree branches at varying heights.
