History

The replica was planned for Tollefson Plaza, but was instead erected near the intersections of South Sixth Avenue, South Baker Street, and St. Helens Avenue on August 31, 2011.[3][4]

As was done to many notable statues at the time, a face mask was placed on the artwork in March 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic.[5]
