The late Cleda and Ray Townsend, founder of Townsend Engineering Company of Des Moines, authorized the production of the sculpture for the Park Fleur Condominiums. The condominiums were built in 1967 and established as a private company in 1977. Townsend’s son Ted explained: “We commissioned those pieces from a local junior high school art teacher named Peter Marasco.” The monumental sculpture is comprised to two narrow slabs of Cor-Ten steel, one of the vertical forms is torqued so that the top and bottom curves. Within the upper portion of each form is a perfect circular opening.
