free love in times square

Looking for “love” in the big city? Look no further than the Crossroads of the World, as the Times Square Alliance unveils “LOVE in Times Square”, a public art project featuring 15 unique banner designs by 12 top graphic designers and illustrators. Each banner utilizes the word “LOVE” in a strikingly different typographic treatment, as each artist brings their personal interpretation to the word.

is this a follow up to the Urban Forest Project (http://www.urbanforestproject.org/)?

Reminds me of the 800+ plastic cows that where put up all across Zurich some years ago. What once was a fantastic idea has been repeated too often (benches and bears in Zurich, frogs in Lucerne) and lost much of it's initial appeal.
