The Narrow Group is proposing to turn TransLink's SkyTrain's old Mark I cars entering retirement into mobile artist studios.
TransLink is expected to decommission about 150 of its original Mark I SkyTrain cars over the next two years, and a Vancouver group wants to convert them to artist spaces.
David Duprey and Sage Brocklebank want to see 150 retiring Mark I SkyTrain cars transformed into art studios. They're pitching the idea to TransLink. One of the first SkyTrain cars, seen in 1984.
