Chestnut Street Public Art Arch, Portsmouth, New Hampshire
Why are you reporting this puzzle?
Two fine days were spent in Portsmouth, New Hampshire after Christmas with our son in Maine.
Our first morning started out with breakfast at one of our favorite places-The Friendly Toast. While we were waiting for the restaurant to open, I snapped a few photos.
The Arch:
"Spanning Chestnut Street at Congress Street between Kearsarge House and the Hartford Building stands the Chestnut Street Public Art Arch, a gift in the form of a wayfinding gateway to the city from The Music Hall. It was designed by local artist Terrence Parker and fabricated by NeoKraft, a Lewiston, Maine, corporation which also installed it in 2018.
• Height: 37 feet (11.25 meters)
• Width: 35.5 feet (10.75 meters)
• Weight: 10,000 pounds
• Materials: Steel and Aluminum coated in Bronze
A pair of seven foot tall pedestal bases clad in light gray granite support the structure. Stainless steel plaques are mounted to the north, east, and west faces of both. The north and outside plaques direct to the nearby sites of the African Burying Ground, Discover Portsmouth, Market Square, Music Hall Loft, and Portwalk North End."
