Enough discussion about landlocked public art. Nashville needs to find some cool water feature art to install on the Cumberland. Check out the Big Apple:
I don't think this waterfall really looks that great. Lots of scaffolding, the water is wispy (unlike the drawings) and that return pipe running up through the bottom is geeky (piping would be OK in a Rube Goldberg aesthetic, but not here). Lacks the majesty of nature or the uncompromising precision of industry. Is this really worth the massive carbon footprint?
How cool. Thanks for sharing that, Mike.
