Awkwardly called the ‘Vessel’, this was supposed to be an interactive public sculpture that offers the public a 1.61 km (one mile) vertical climbing experience and, of course, views! The Vessel is constructed of a structural steel frame covered by a shiny polished copper-coloured cladding. However, for now, the name ‘Vessel’ seems to have stuck. It must have been a lot of exercise to climb down into the step well and then up with pots of water. At the Vessel, however, with the same amount of exercise all one can fetch is a selfie.
