This sculpture is all made out of metal, possibly bronze. It is perched on top one of the many hotels here in the Spanish Times Square. It looks to be a woman riding on the back of an eagle or gargoyle. It is about 150 feet up in the air, while the actual sculpture is about the size of a Smart Car. I am amazed by how did this thing get all the way to the top.
