Seattle Mayor Ed Murray unveiled rainbow crosswalks early Tuesday morning.
The Capitol Hill Seattle Blog reports the LGBTQ community has been working on the symbolic effort for years.
The city said the project cost about $66,000 which came from DOT funds. The crosswalks are expected to last three to five years, but the city said it plans to maintain them for years to come.
Along with a couple photos of the rainbows being installed, Murray tweeted Monday night, "A big 'thank you' to the @seattledot work crew & @skubly for their fantastic work!"
He's also "looking forward to seeing you at #LGBT Pride."
