“An abstract stainless steel sculpture that reflects the diverse and vital forces symbolic of those that shaped the development of our city and which will continue to shape its future. The base form of the sculpture represents the source of our historical experiences from which the present time and events depicted by the dynamic curvilinear forms in the central portion have emerged. The upper mass form represents the future from which the sculpture will be a sentinel, a "Guardian of all Directions," which will stand the test of time.”
