Someone please explain why? Is the metal repurposed from a significant building because they look like a combination of Freddy Krueger meets a Skyscraper Transformer. Why????? Just why?????






Wow what a great industrial art display

I saw the sculptures when they were placed and many others and I thought and still think they look like Sh[+ and it reminds me of Edward scissors hands. Garbage and messy.

We need more public art like this to inspire conversations! I didn't take a picture as we were driving underneath, but kudos to whoever designed this. We had a great time talking about it!





Industrial art pieces for an industrial city. The sculptures themselves were very abstract and unique. It was a smooth ride across the ramp and with the stop lights it made sitting in traffic just a little bit more pleasant. It was in route to the Western Historic Trails Center so you might get a 2 for 1 experience if you were just driving through and wanted to experience Council Bluffs. It is also about 10 minutes away from The Union Pacific Railroad Museum.

I'm not sure how I feel about the looks of the artwork. Got a ship/ pirate theme? When the wind is strong enough it makes a metallic whistling, howling sound.
