His body was moved three times, and the third time, a society in the early 1900s decided that his grave needed a suitable homage. They raised all kinds of money, and this giant phallic symbol is the result. BTW, there is also an excellent Lewis and Clark interpretive center right off of I-29 here, along the riverfront.

[RA: The interpretive center, 900 Larsen Park Road, Sioux City, features a statue of Lewis, Clark, and their heroic dog, Seaman. The nearby Sgt. Floyd Riverboat Museum exhibits a life-sized forensic reconstruction of Sgt. Floyd.]Nearby Offbeat Places
