There are some interesting looking seats near the bus stop along the Florida Atlantic University (FAU) service road near the Southeast Quad.
From the plaque on site, “The goal of ‘Blossoms’ is to create a garden of color, form and movement and at the same time, provide unique functional amenities such as artful seating, and meeting points for the academic community.” The posted co-ordinates represent this plaque.
The following text is taken from the FAU website.
