Donkeeboy and Donkeemom created the “Bike Through H-Town” mural in partnership with Bosch eBike Systems, makers of the electric drive systems in the BCycle electric bikes available for rent at stations throughout the city, including the GreenStreet station near the mural. The mural was created as an encouraging piece for Houstonians to get outdoors, hop on a bike, and explore all the city has to offer.
Shelbi Nicole’s signature whimsical style is so representative of the joy and freedom riding a bike means for many people. Art draws you in, which is exactly what Shelbi’s design does. When you drive by GreenStreet, you’ll be intrigued by the beautiful colors on the BCycle station. But on a bike, you can get caught up in the cute swirls, polka dots and flowers of the design. The world seems brighter on a bike. This Art Station was created in partnership with Houston BCycle, GreenStreet, and Midway Creative Group.
Ascending Focus, a 2021 Top 100 Public Art CODAaward winner, is an interactive augmented reality installation from the series of work titled Format 3 created by Danish artist duo Louise Foo and Martha Skou.
Composed of 81 “Sound Symbols,” Ascending Focus utilizes three basic shapes at various scales mapped to sound samples from their corresponding elements – square, circle, triangle/earth, water, fire. This installation combines graphic elements, virtual objects, and sound to create spatial experiences.
Visitors can create their own unique soundscapes by downloading the Format3 app. The app uses augmented reality to activate the symbols with their corresponding sound. Visitors can use the app to manipulate the pitch, tone, and duration of the sound played by each symbol and can even activate multiple symbols, resulting in unique soundscapes as they explore the artwork.

Participants can decorate the soccer balls however they like and display their soccer balls at their place of businessduring the campaign or choose to tour around the city to be collectively displayed in high-traffic areas around Houston. GreenStreet’s Lobby has been selected as a display location, and currently have more than 15 balls on display for the public to see.
GreenStreet is home to the Houston Sports Walk of Fame. Stretching from House of Blues through the promenade, are a collection of plaques honoring local athletes, including Hakeem Olajuwon, Earl Campbell, AJ Foyt, Nolan Ryan, and many more to come.
During a time of uncertainty, GreenStreet has launched a mural to keep everyone hopeful of the bright future ahead of us. Stop by for a selfie and tell us what you’re hopeful for, and be sure to tag @greenstreethou and #Hope4HOU!
