The Navy Yard here in Philadelphia is already a pretty neat place- it once was a military shipyard; in fact, many of the warships are still there! Now, its 1,200 acres are home to more than 165 companies which occupy a mix of the historic buildings along with new LEED® certified construction. This month, the Navy Yard has added something new to its resume: a (very) large-scale public art installation! If you take a trip to the Yard (yes, it is open to the public) you will come across an old rusted building that is popping at the seams with what looks to be a sea monster! This installation has come to fruition by artists Luke Egan and Pete Hamilton, perhaps better known as Filthy Luker and Pedro Estrellas who are UK-based artists. This installation is located in building 611 and will only be up for 45 days so be sure to check it out before it's too late!
