Final Pieces of Navy Monument Installed

The artist team of Al McWilliams, Joost Bakker and Bruce Haden were in Ottawa this month to install the final pieces of the Canadian Navy Monument, including the gold spheres that top the marble-faced Signature and the gold Mast finial.  The views from on top of and under the Portage Bridge are even more impressive than we anticipated, and the gold elements looks spectacular in the Ottawa winter landscape.  Congratulations to the team, including Vance Harris at Dialog, who prepared all the working drawings for the Signature.  We look forward to the long awaited opening of the monument this coming spring, when Hapa's landscape design - including the lawn berms, ring of oak trees and spring bulbs - will be a bit more visible!
