Giant Sculptures in Houston

Happened to stumble onto this the other day, just a few miles outside of downtown Houston (2500 Summer St).

Apparently these have been in the works for a while; here's an article about it from 2004:The Link

The presidential sculptures are being moved to a new development that I worked on in Pearland. There will be a waterway and boats that will wind there way around these sculptures.

The sculptor is David Adickes - the guy who did the Sam Houston statue in Huntsville and the dude playing cello in downtown Houston.
