Combining an aluminum exterior with a steel infrastructure, this 15-ton stylized sculpture by artist Jeff Laramore of 2nd Globe Studios honors Indiana’s state bird, the northern cardinal. Linel Signature of Mooresville was the fabricator of the cardinal sculpture, spending over spent 6 months cutting, shaping, and welding the 15,000 pounds of steel and 15,000 pounds of aluminum. The multimillion-dollar plaza outside the JW Marriott tower is a tribute to Indiana, with artwork depicting the state bird, the state tree (the tulip poplar), and state flower (the peony).
