Yesterday while strolling the Riverwalk I came across this new statue.
Who's bright idea was it to put that there?

"the River Authority engineers assisted in the planning, design management, bidding, and construction of the Stargazer (Citali) statue, as well as serving as the project manager for the Door of Equality (La Puerta de Igualdad) sculpture."
So, I assume the river authority.

Probably a city idea, but SARA does a lot of engineering and construction for city projects via an interlocal agreement.
I will save everyone a trip and post a picture.

The release added that "Citlali" means "star" in Nauhatl, the indigenous language of Mexico City, which is Reyes' hometown.
This is the latest installation in the River Walk Public Art Garden, which includes "Bloom" and "Green Spaces at Market Street."
"The River Walk Public Art Garden has been an extensive, multi-year project that celebrates the spirit of connection with artworks by several San Antonio Artists intermingled with pieces by international artists," Krystal Jones, the interim executive director of the Department of Arts & Culture, said in the release.
I question most of the art in SA, including this one. I could retire making hideous statues like this. I'm not an artsy guy so what do I know.
