It’s supposed to be a 1950s-era kitchen counter. It was installed at the same time as the ’57 Chevy at San Mateo & Gibson and a BarcaLounger located in another pocket park along San Mateo that I believe has since been removed. At the time the sculptor said the idea behind the whole series had something to do with ’50s domesticity, suburban expansion, etc.

Phil, thank you so much for that information. It’s always nice to have the story behind the art work with something like this.
