This light tower is half of Jaume Plensa’s Crown Fountain in Chicago’s Millennium Park. According to the picture here, both towers are usually to be found sitting in a rectangular pond – which helps to explain the spurting water jets (apparently the water is also supposed to “cascade from the top of each” tower, too).
The mirrored sculpture I posted an image of yesterday is called Cloud Gate, by Anish Kapoor. It certainly doesn’t look like 110 tons of steel. Lots more pics here.
