This sculpture does remind many local folks of a giant orange screw. The cube itself was orange and the threads are silver. It is made from welded steel and stainless steel.
This sculpture was one of many that Muriel and Philip Berman donated to the City of Allentown for display in the city parks.
Paul Sisko's website has another photo of the sculpture:
