The concrete square is tiny, about 10"x14". It's in the grass of the apartment building opposite the bridge.

Tricky to find -- but it's still there -- and you can really see teeth!

The block appears to have been stolen or moved, but there is still a slab of concrete, partially buried, with some loose teeth that you can pick up and touch. I had three friends there and we all took pics of the slab. Very weird.
