Rooftop Dragon

We went looking for the dragon while in Tampa. It's still there and still bright. We couldn't find anyone to tell us about it, so I took some pictures and left.

Large Rooftop Dragon

Spotted a bright metal sculpture, possibly chrome-plated, on the roof of a one-story strip of stores on the south side of Kennedy Blvd. Seems to be part of Associated Watch and Jewelry (treasures worth a dragon's protection!). The statue is estimated to be 30 feet long.
