Cityscape // This new public sculpture, titled “Estuary,” now stands behind Fire Station No. 17 at 2211 Semmes Ave. Richmond Mayor Dwight C. Jones led the July 21 unveiling of the 10-foot-tall, stainless steel piece. The sculptor is Ross Caudill of Brooklyn, N.Y., who earned his master’s in fine arts at Virginia Commonwealth University. When the station was built in 2012, 1 percent of the $4.6 million construction cost was set aside to pay for public art to go with it. Mr. Caudill was paid $34,103, and another $5,000 was spent to install his work. However, his sculpture is largely invisible to people and traffic passing the station on Semmes. It is actually located outside the station property in adjacent Canoe Run Park, where it overlooks people playing and exercising. The city park is at 20th Street and Riverside Drive.
