2013 | Caldecott Tunnel
Architectural Facades Unlimited modeled artwork, created molds and cast these six student-designed medallions.

Six hexagonal medallions embedded in concrete sit high above the east and west portals of the new fourth bore of the Caldecott Tunnel. Unveiled during the opening ceremony of the fourth bore on Nov. 15, 2013, the student-designed medallions pay homage to the 1937 Caldecott bores that are decorated with octagonal medallions displaying Art Deco scenes.
