The bench was located half way back from the curb and set next to a tree.

The bench was constructed using old, rusty, industrial metal pieces that were once a part of the Steam Plant.

One piece of metal had an old serial number 82850 cast into its surface.

A metal arm rest divided the corrugated metal seating surface into two separate seats.

The metal bench appeared to be suspended from two pivots so it could rock, but was sadly welded into place and totally rigid.
