Soaring Eastern Bluebirds, the official bird of New York state, can now be seen gracing the northern-facing side of the Quackenbush Parking Garage on Orange Street in downtown Albany by commuters driving into the city. Part of a mural measuring approximately 25 feet high and 85 feet wide, the birds symbolize a collaborative effort by the Albany Parking Authority and two nonprofit arts institutions “to create a welcoming gateway into Downtown Albany that will buoy the ongoing expansion of the city’s bustling business district.”
