The Iconic Metro Gold Line Bridge superstructure over the 210 freeway in Arcadia is flanked by two 25-foot tall diameter sculptural baskets that are tied together visually by the relief patterns on the outrigger beam. Each woven basket is comprised of 60 individually designed precast stone pieces. The challenge was setting the 700 pound precast stone pieces which were created using handcrafted primary casting forms keeping the round pieces level and attaching to the reinforcing steel.
