Large chainsaw sculpture of a bear standing on its hind legs, on the east side of Highway 23. Its eyes, nostrils, and claws, and the inside of its mouth are painted. The eyes, and possibly the nostrils, were not carved by a chainsaw. I estimate this bear to be 12 feet high.
This sculpture was previously at Bell Tower Plaza, but the business which it advertises moved a few blocks north. The plaza was demolished in 2016. The sculpture was also listed at its Bell Tower Plaza location.
There is off-street parking, in case you wish to examine this bear close up.
