Urban Bamboo

  

Planted on a parking strip in NE Portland. Two winters ago, during a snowstorm, this group of bamboo, loaded with ice and snow, were laying horizontal on the street. After the snow and ice melted they bounced back up as though nothing had happened. 

Man and Hammer

In Rockefeller Center. This engraving confuses me. Why would the Rockefellers commission an engraving of a guy with a hammer, which seems to represent the working class? Maybe this is a representation of a Greek God that I am not familiar with?
