On a walkabout downtown Seattle today I found this excellent totem pole made of motorcycle parts at the base of harborsteps.

Looks like a great place to start or end a journey!

Nice work!

That must be fairly new. I used to travel the harbor steps twice a day for many years.
I'll have to try and make it back down there to see this. I no longer work down there.

Sure. Here are a couple more. I just didn't like the background. Or those pesky people.  Lol





I think that it was installed last month.

PS
The totem pole was removed from harbor steps when the exhibit ended. Not sure where it is now...
