Coo Lot with Plum Pipes by Matthew Geller

Quite a few of our projects scheduled for 2020 installations were postponed so it made the ones we completed all the more cause for celebration including Matthew Geller’s latest work of public art Coo Lot with Plum Pipes.

Coo Lot with Plum Pipes transforms two empty residential lots by creating a new jaunty entrance to R.J. Taylor Park in Cleveland, OH which includes a spot for neighbors to saunter, meet, and gather.

Referencing the nearby Nottingham Water Treatment Plant, the artwork is a 135-foot labyrinthine of water pipes with a swaying bench, horizontal pipes that provide bench-like seating, and light that spills out of the vertical pipes like water to illuminate the path and trees in the evening.

With social distancing at the forefront of our minds Coo Lot with Plum Pipes provides ample space to sit and socialize safely and will no doubt become a welcomed addition to the neighborhood.
