Artist Keith Turman created a 20-foot-wide bowler for a British furniture store, but the plan to perch it on the corner of the building didn't comply with Dallas display codes. So the two-ton hat wound up in a grassy vacant lot.

The hat, which took about four months to produce, is a mix of wood, steel, fiberglass, epoxy, and rigid foam. Work to install the steel sculpture began on December 30, 2012.
