Watertower (Fruin)
It is located just south of downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin on top of the seven-story Coakley Brothers Company warehouse in the Walker's Point neighborhood.Watertower is a sculpture made of multicolored Plexiglas panels assembled in a frame of welded steel in the form of a water tower.The sculpture's form references the once-common rooftop water tanks, most of which were removed decades ago.[1] Sunlight illuminates the artwork by day, and interior lights make it highly visible at night.[4] According to a statement by Coakley, her goal with the commission is that "the public will see the sculpture as a symbol of pride for the city's diverse and vibrant citizens and a symbol of how neighborhoods and cities can be progressive and forward-thinking, while still being true to their roots.
