The Virginia Bowers Memorial Sculpture

This wonderful sculpture made from original trolley tracks removed from Delaware Avenue honors the late Virginia Bowers, Albany historian.  It's a whimsical creation with metal birds in its branches and stands behind the Delaware Avenue branch of the Albany Public Library.  If you'd like to buy a brick to be placed around the sculpture, they are $50 each and can be ordered here.
