Hi, I love your photos of the Pulaski you took yesterday.  I am not sure if this is a permanent installation or “street art” or what.. but my friend described it as looking like  tree poop.  The photo was taken at 10:30am Tuesday morning.. and that wood was bolted into the ground.

I noticed this piece of public seating (or “tree poop”— take your pick) last night. I even took several photographs of it, but none of them came out. I for one like it— but have no idea who (or what) is behind it. Anyone out there have the 411? If so, please share via comments.

Thanks!

Miss Heather

    2. Well, I got an answer sooner than anticipated. After repeated calls to 311 and cruising the DOT website, I was lucky enough to look out my window and see the grafitti artist/stencil man at work on the south end of the Pulaski Bridge. I asked him if he and his gang of artists were also responsible for the wood bench tabletop gymnasium. He said yes. I asked how long it will remain up. He said 11 months. He asked if i liked it. I said I did not because it is cumbersome looking and looks as if only a person two feet tall could sit on it comfortably. But, I noted, others did like it. His response, “Well, that’s the point. You either like it or you don’t.”

    So, there you go, the mystery of tree poop solved.

    Thanks,

    Blair

    4. Obviously (and as usual) I am behind on your blogs 🙂 “Tree Poop” – now that I like!

Tell me what you're thinking...
