The city of Lakewood's Planning and Public Works web page is a interesting place to tease out development information concerning the Belmar area, although often the information given is vague.
Today I came across a proposal for a sculpture on the north side of Alameda between S. Teller and S. Reed Ct. The applicant is the Alameda Business Improvement District. It's listed as case number PL11002, "Rayonism Sculpture Planning Case." The only description is "Sculpture in ROW on the north side of Alameda Ave."
Is this an additional sculpture in the "Arts Along Alameda" series? If so, let's hope it's more like Jon Stiles' inventive piece "Flow" (located at Alameda and Sheridan) and less like Kevin Robb's rather painful "Joyfully Dancing" (located in the round-about in front of the Belmar Library).
Here's the link: http://www.lakewood.org/index.cfm?include=/Applications/PlanCases/dsp_detail.cfm&caseID=14
UPDATE: Yes, this is definitely part of the "Arts Along Alameda" series.

Denver Water's "Use Only What You Need" Campaign Comes to Belmar
This quirky piece of sculptural advertising currently sits across from the Press cafe along the east end of Alaska Street. The newspaper stand on the right is normal sized. Very fun and definitely eye-catching!
Two other pieces are also in the neighborhood: a pair of benches in the main plaza, and two fire hydrants out front of the Belmar Target. The ads are by Sukle Advertising & Design, and are part of their work for Denver Water's "Use Only What You Need" Campaign."
