Over four miles of the road will be closed between Delanglade Street in Kaukauna to Lock Street in Wrightstown as construction crews prepare to replace culvert pipes, according to the Wiscon- sin Department of Transportation. The road will remain open for local but drivers should plan to take the detour along Interstate 41 to avoid construction.
Construction is part of a $2.6 million project to resurface State 96, repair storm sewer and culvert pipes, widen the paved shoulder and add rumble strips. After culvert pipe replacements are State 96 will be closed for an additional eight weeks between Lock Street and Broadway Street in Wright- stown for storm sewer repairs.

With the austere look of some of the new buildings, that might be a worthwhile investment. Answer: The city doesn't any grants to enhance the architecture of new construction, but it does provide matching grants for exterior renovations to commercial buildings.
The grants are capped at $7,000 per project and can ap- ply to aesthetic improvements such as painting, masonry cleaning and land- scaping. Appleton Downtown Inc. also facade renovation grants. For new construction, though, Com- munity Development Director Kara Ho- man summarized the city's position this way: "We respect that architectural at- tractiveness can be subjective and is driven by the property owner and their design team." There's no universal acceptance for what's architecturally attractive, much less whether government should play a role, or otherwise, in that deter- mination. When Lawrence University and the Trout Museum of Art broke ground on a $38 million building at 315 E.
College they touted its "simplicity of form" that will "seamlessly fuse the boundary between downtown Appleton and the edge of Lawrence University's campus." Commenters on social media viewed the building "Pretty sterile looking design reminis- cent of the Paper Valley Hotel but happy to see the Trout staying downtown," an Appleton resident said on Facebook. "I have no words for the design (or lack of design) of this building. Did they get multiple proposals and this was the best? Very confusing," another post said. Beauty, indeed, is in the eye of the be- holder. Personally, I like the architecture of the Lawrence Memorial Chapel and the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center.
On the other hand, I think the archi- tecture of the building at 221 W. Washington while perhaps function- al, is crude and cold. I'm curious what others think about the best and worst architecture in Apple- ton and the rest of the Fox Cities. If you have an opinion, please share it with me. My contact information is listed below.
I might use the responses in a future col- umn or story. Post-Crescent reporter Duke Behnke answers your questions about local gov- ernment. Send questions to or call him at 920-993-7176. The design of the new building at 315 E. College Ave.
