Pedestrian - Ground painting
Ground painting is an option that does not involve adding more accessories to the street or sidewalk. Occurring at the beginning of a crosswalk or the edge of sidewalks, the paintings could be either written or graphic. Graphic directions would include an image or symbol for the attraction as well as pointing in that direction.

Written directions could include a witty phrase about the attraction and then direct the person to that attraction. To connect this with the “areas,” each area would be assigned a color and all signs for the attractions in that area would be painted the assigned color.
