Mystery structures on Wellington

These lovely snow fence frames have adorned Wellington between Holland and Western since the side walks were redone last year.

Anyone know what they are?

Here are a couple of guesses:
  • The concrete blocks will be the foundation for pieces of public art;
  • The orange contraptions themselves are the art!

  3. you should be skeptical. I gotta say, the Fire Hydrants were not my first choice for West Wellington's public art.
