The Lot
The Lot is Artspace's pocket park and public art space. It is located near Artspace at 812 Chapel Street, the site of a busy bus stop. Artspace has been presenting temporary art installations at this site since 1999, and redeveloped it as a dedicated art space in 2005, in collaboration with local and federal agencies.
The site is a square of about 90 x 90 feet (27 m), facing Chapel Street, with a short side passage connecting to Orange Street. The site is bordered by the sides of neighborhing buildings. Around the site's perimeter, seven 25-foot (7.6 m) rigger poles support lighting and hanging hardware for artwork. The Lot is not gated; it is accessible to the public 24 hours a day.

Famous quotes containing the word lot:
“When constabulary duty’s to be done,
A policeman’s lot is not a happy one.”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
“Funny ain’t it. Here I am worrying about a woman. Men don’t worry much about women when they’re around. But when it gets way off from home like we are now, and where he knows he’s going a lot further away ... I mean that’s when a woman gets workin’ in your mind. You reckon you’re a fool for not noticin’ before how, how big a part of things they be. There ain’t nothin’ like seein’ a woman’s face.”
—Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)
