In 2007, she was selected to design integrated public art elements of a $3.5 million streetscape in Cleveland's Gordon Square Arts District, which was completed in 2009.[5] and in 2013, Frazier was selected to design a terrazzo floor pattern for a newly-constructed RTA Rapid Transit station in Cleveland's Little Italy neighborhood.[6]
