There is also a horse sculpture on the opposite side of the building from where the dragon is located.

The dragon is cool to see. Intricate detail. Across the way is a funny front part of a school bus. Two-for-one stop!

The dragon is definitely more intimidating from the side view than head-on.

A worker out front saw us taking pictures from a distance and called us over so we could get close-ups. He said that the artist is working on adding a tail. He had no idea the dragon was "on the internet." A very helpful guy!
