The Seattle Post Intellingencer globe is looking a little sad and forlorn...

The Seattle Post Intelligencer globe is looking a little sad and forlorn...but nothing a good scrubbing won't fix.  Apparently, when they went out of business, no one was assigned the job of keeping this great globe clean.  The globe is made of steel and is one of the city's most beloved pieces of public art.  I don't know if the building owns it, or The Seattle Times.  The best part about the globe's location is that you can see it from many parts of the great waterfront sculpture park.  Hopefully, before they sell it for scrap they will haul it down and place it in the park.  And maybe bring in the Hat and Boots, and the Pink Elephant car wash sign too. . .
