This weekend, visitors coming to Lincoln for the annual Lincoln Art & Balloon Festival will get a hint that some very big things are going to be happening in the city in the near future. New banners have arrived at City Hall touting the Downtown Restoration project for Pulaski Street that will begin this fall. The banners will be placed on Pulaski Street. Another banner will be placed near the Lincoln Depot, indicating that there is a restoration project ongoing there as well. Additional more generic banners will go up around the downtown area to advise visitors that the city of Lincoln is planning a transformation of the heart of the city.
