Summary
A 21-foot stainless steel sculpture by a nationally known artist could come to Keene on a free one-year loan, with the city splitting any sale commission. Councilors worried a rotary site invites distracted driving, so Pat Russell Park is now the preferred spot — and some see it as the seed of a future sculpture park in East Keene.
