BIRMINGHAM, Alabama – The famed San Antonio artist who designed the LightRails lighted art project in the 18th Street underpass near the Birmingham Railroad Park is suing REV Birmingham for not using him for future LightRails projects, unethically going instead with a REV board member’s company.
Artist Bill FitzGibbons filed the lawsuit Dec. 17 against REV Birmingham, Mayer Electric and Nancy Goedecke, Mayer chief executive and REV board member, in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas in San Antonio.
